So I had my revision BBL 3 weeks ago. On Jan 8, 2018... my doctor, I feel over filled my butt. I had 700 cc first time one year go, he added 1000cc this time. But he did mention that the second time around it wasn’t pure yellow virgin fat, what ever that means. He said I will lose lots of fat again. I’m gonna wait until I’m healed for a reduction. Hopefully it will shrink more and I won’t even need it. But if you doctors can do a reduction or know any surgeon please let me know.

Dear, after a fat graft, we notice two volume: the swelling and the fat. The swelling fades away quicker and you will note the progressive diminishing after 6 weeks. Concerning the fat, 1/3 of the total volume don'ts survive after 1 year. Beyond that, it will follow your body weight fluctuations...
Thank you for your question! You are still very early with swelling still in place! I suggest waiting 3-6 weeks to see your final result. Best of luck!Dr Dhaval Patel
