Fat detachment/separation 16 months post-op: Am I at risk of a blood clot? (photos)

February 11, 2023
Asked By:CoachMJ25 in Columbus, Georgia

Hello, I had a BBL procedure 16 mths ago. I did my research to ensure my surgeon was board certified. My results were horrible. Today, I felt a sensation in my left buttock as if there was wet paper stuck to it. After inspection, I noticed a line of hyperpigmentation in the area and it seems that the fat detached from the skin and relocated under the gluteal fold region. I have discomfort when I sit. So, WHAT ARE MY HEALTH RISKS? a clot? embolism? or just deformity?
