I am not sure that massages are absolutely necessary but are recommended after fat transfer and liposuction. But this treatment may be helpful in evening out the transferred fat, reducing the possibility of lumpiness, and improving the "take" of the fat.
SO liposuction always leaves an uneven result in the early days. Massage helps squeeze out the fluid that has replaced the fat globules and so can make the results smoother in the short term and speed recovery and the final results in the medium to long term. Don't excessively massage the areas that have had fat put in though as this may cause the fat to dissolve away if you are too vigorous too soon after fat transfer to those areas. Hope that helps Adam Goodwin
Since I do 5_+ BBlLs per week I recommend multiple massages to help with the swelling and drainage from the liposuctioned areas.

Dear Eli Cohen,A massage six months after a facial fat transfer should be fine. I would consult with your doctor if you have any additional concerns. Best regards,Nima Shemirani
Botox with fillers tends to be best for this problem.Any filler will need Botox to keep the filler or fat from being compressed over time by the frown muscle movement.
Dear SydneyLoo,Swelling 50 hours after fat transfer is very normal. Swelling can last up to 8 weeks so I would be patient at this time and try not to worry. Icing and taking Ibuprofen will help reduce the swelling. If you have any more concerns, I would bring this up with your surgeon. Best reg...
