Asked By:melwilk in London, GB

Hi I had fat transfer from my love handles to my breasts about 10 days ago, I have very red patches, which feel hard. I contacted my surgeon asking if I have an infection, but I don't have a fever so he said it's just part of the recovery. It's been 4 days of redness and it's still not fading.
