1.5 weeks post-op: Completely messed up my BBL revision, please help. (Photos)

Question

So I had a bbl done earlier in December 2016, and the recent one was almost 1 week and a half ago. I am really disappointed with the results and I need some help here please .. is this swelling or what? And will it get better or I must wait and do another surgery? Please help . And will the fat drop down or is it going to be the same?

Dear fauzkh,I understand your concern and it is quite normal to be concerned about the outcome following a BBL surgery. However, you are still in the very early stages of the healing process.
Your will need to be patient at this moment and follow what your surgeon has instructed you to do post operatively.
At the early stage of the healing process, the tissues around are still swollen. Once the swelling subsides you will be able to see the final result of your surgery. Daniel Barrett, MD

I'm sorry your expectations haven't been met especially after having to repeat the surgery. As you often see written here it's just too early to tell where things will “settle”. There is certainly swelling in the area from the surgery and all of that swelling does not necessarily represent misplaced fat. I can understand your frustration but for now you just have to be patient and see where things end up.
