How long does it take for the initial lumps to disappear after fat transfer to the face?

Thank you for you for your question. It takes 2-3 weeks for the swelling and lumps and asymmetry to subside with fat transfer to the face.  Final results take 3 months. Discuss your concerns with your Plastic Surgeon. Best Wishes

Typically it takes 10-14 days for the swelling and edema to go down.  I rarely get any "lumps" or "bumps" from my fat injections, especially if the fat is very homogenous, injected in small aliquots/threads, and is massaged lightly post treatment.  I suggest you go back to your injecting physician if you are concerned.  Best, Dr. Emer.
