I had a fat transfer to my tear troughs 9 days ago. As of 2 days ago, I developed a hardened area just below where I would've expected the fat to have been placed. Under one eye, the bump is a hardened ridge following the contour of the trough (though just below it). It's visible and I'm freaking out. Doctor said to give it time, it's just swelling. I'm worried. This procedure was ancillary to another and I don't even mind if I reverse the graft completely rather than have bumps. What can I do?
