liposuction may help, but some of the fat cells may be so small and buried in the muscle that it will be difficult to remove with liposuction. swelling is very common after fat injections in the breasts and the liposuction to remove it can also cause a lot of swelling. Corticosteroids might present a significant health risk, and its effectiveness in reducing fat is in question.
It is possible to remove the fat to make you more symmetrical but it needs to be physically removed which is complicated by the fact that fat is in your pecs. This is not an easy problem to fix. Sorry! Visit with a board certified plastic surgeon.
In sculpting the male pecs, fat is injected into the fibers of the pectoralis major muscle. This would make the removal of that fat near impossible. It can not be liposuctioned and to open it to try to remove the fat would create a large incision and may not be able to remove the fat completely. You need to see a BOARD CERTIFIED PLASTIC SURGEON (AMERICAN BOARD OF PLASTIC SURGERY) for proper diagnosis of the problems and what could be done if any. some times if the problem is irrigularities, it can be hidden with fat graft to the subcutaneous plane. contour irrigularities and nipple position are more difficult.
Reversing fat grafting is much harder than the original operation because the fat is placed in string-like "structural" fashion in many different planes. This is particularly so in the male chest where fat placed inside the pectoralis muscle is impossible to retrieve. Attempting to do so involves blind trauma to the muscle with prolonged swelling, bleeding and muscle weakness and scarring. The other factor to consider is that the removal or attempted removal may be associated with a worse deformity than your perceived deformity now. Ask your Plastic surgeon what he suggests. I would start there. Peter A Aldea, MD
You must be examined to determine the extent of fat loss and ptosis or dropped buttock. IT is possible that fat injections can provide improvement for some patients with such a condition.
On can often experience significant asymmetry after fat transfer especially if you started off asymmetrically and the doctor made amends for that by injecting more fat on one side than the other to compensate for such. basically the state to my patients that fat and swelling continue to...
In general the amount of fat harvested to do fat transfer to the face is much less than for liposuction/liposculpture for body contouring purposes. Because of this, the physiologic challenge to the body is significantly less and therefore generally "safer" with all other factors...
Many patients are severely stressed when their recovery is "timed" and calendar limited by deadlines. The closer you get to the event, the higher the stress. You are wise to ask what to expect, but understand that each patient heals at different rates based on your...
I would be careful to avoid fillers for your eyelid skin unless an experienced physician sees you in consultation and says despite your very young age, that you could benefit from such treatment. Probability is that you have a higher chance of being dissatisfied with irregularities and asymmetry...
Swelling can occur asymmetrically. It doesn't mean that it will end up this way. Your nasal surgery compounds the swelling of the lower eyelids so you have two reasons for the eyelid to be lumpy for now. You'll have to be patient and follow-up with your surgeon. Give it time...
