Treatment for Encapsulated Fat After Brazilian Butt Lift

June 2, 2010

What is the recommended treatment for incapsulated fat as complication from Brazilian Butt Lift? I underwent a brazilian butt lift 7 days ago. Unfortunately the fat on my left buttock did not take/encapsulated/hardened. My surgery was performed in Mexico. My MD has me on Cedix and gave me 1 Rocephin IM. Do I stick with my MD for treatment or should I seek help in US? What is the Recommended tx?
