Recent fat transfers palpate as hard nodules under facial skin. What's normal? 8 days post op. (photos)

Dear MichelleD82,If the nodules are getting worse, especially after 2 weeks, you can have your surgeon do injections with steroids and 5FU8 days is still pretty early, and the nodules can be treated at any timeI would wait for the swelling to go down further before making any judgments, your surgeon is correctMassage may help, but just verify with your surgeonBest,Dr. Nima

It will take up to 6 months to see final results. I recommend adding prp and Sculptra, depending on area, to improve final results. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Since you are only 8 days post op I would apply heat and massage.It for sure will go down over the next several weeks/months.
