Hi! I'm 22F and had a face fat transfer about 6 months ago. I was told 80% of the fat would not survive and it's 6 months after and I have about 70% of the fat still on my face. I didn't really need it in the first place, It was recommended to me by the surgeon for my acne scars (which didn't really help). I just want to look like my old self again :( I've looked at many forums, and haven't found an answer to this!! Pls help- I look like a moon in pictures
