I had fat transfer 4 days ago, and my face looks so disoriented and ugly! My doctor suggested that she'll add much fat because most of the fat will dissolve so she wants 25%of the fat to remain. My question is; is it normal to look weird and not like myself 4 days after surgery?
Answer: Fat transfer You should look pretty swollen after 4 days so will appear over corrected. About 50% of the fat will usually resorb but this can take a few weeks. At 4 days you should be swollen from the procedure as well. So you need to wait for some of this to all settle down.

Answer: Fat transfer results--add prp, sculptra It's too soon to tell what your final results will be. Swelling is typical after fat transfer and can last 3-6 months. I recommend prp and/or sculptra, depending on the area, to help improve final results. Icing the area, predisone, ibuoprofen and venus legacy treatments can help reduce swelling. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: I had a fat transferred to my face 4 days ago and I don't look like myself, is it normal to look too filled 4 days after? Hello feelignbluew,With any surgical procedure you will be fairly swollen at day 4. This is even more true with fat transfer as volume has been added. As the swelling resolves you will begin to see the results of the procedure. The amount of fat that will remain depends on the techniques used and can range from 25-90% with about 50% being most common. If you have any concerns, I'd recommend you talk to your surgeon about this. I hope this helps and good luck.

Answer: I had a fat transferred to my face 4 days ago and I don't look like myself, is it normal to look too filled 4 days after? Thank you for your question. At 4 days it's still to early in the helaing process. Swelling should star going down as weeks go by. Just be patient and wait, if you have any concerns, contact your surgeon.
