Its been 3 months since the fat transfer in cheekbones and lips and i have a touch up in a month. The lips are gone. Would a second fat transfer to the lips be more successful?
Answer: Fat transfer to the lips The best method to transfer fat to lips is to perform small quantities over several sessions. The predictability of fat transfer is different from individual to individual. Fat has risks such as clumping, uneven resorption and asymmetry. We have a technique to break down the fat into a very smooth paste, making it less viscous and more even. This allows more accurate placement of the fat with less clumping. In theory, it should increase the amount of fat staying behind, however, that needs to be determined by studies. We usually recommend fillers initially if you haven't tried it already. Fat should stay permanently after the initial resorption. Best of luck. Dr. Michael OmidiAn in-person exam with a board-certified plastic surgeon is the best way to assess your needs and provide true medical advice.
