Will the Bumpiness Go Away from the Fat Transfer to my Nasolabial Folds?

March 28, 2013
Asked By:eisensmj in Buffalo, NY

I had a fat transfer to my nasolabial folds 2 weeks ago. I noticed it felt bumpy after the procedure and was told that this is normal. It still feels bumpy 2 weeks later and those areas are hard and noticable when I make certain facial expressions. Will these obvious bumps disappear over time?
