Answer: Uneven lips At four weeks post procedure, some of the asymmetry could be swelling, but I am doubtful that all the asymmetry is due to swelling. You can consider having steroid injected or the fat can be removed surgically. Good luck to you and let us know if you have any questions or concerns.

Answer: Fat Transfer Thank you for posting your question. At four weeks post fat transfer, you can still be experiencing swelling. Fat cell survival rate varies among individuals, but on average half of transferred fat is reabsorbed. The absorption process usually takes months, so what you are seeing now is likely not the final result. As for now, I recommend waiting for another week or two and then meet with your physician to address your concern. Best of luck.
