Weight loss after blepharoplasty?

April 14, 2016
Asked By:mickeydoo in Simi Valley, CA

I am scheduled to have a lower blepharoplasty with a fat transfer to my cheeks. I recently removed Pepsi from my diet and I lost about 30 pounds already. I need to lose 25 more to meet BMI. If I lose 25 pounds, will I lose the fat that was grafted in my cheeks?

Answer: If you lose more weight, yes, the fat in your cheeks will likely reduce as well.
