Remove or dissolve fat after fat transfer to face?

December 21, 2014
Asked By:Worried and scared in Australia, AU

I had fat transfer to my face 5 days ago. I know I have to wait to have all the swell go out but the problem that fat was injected in my bottom cheeks in very big quantity without having any fat injected @ the top cheeks! So I look horrible! I read that steroids can dissolve fat! What type of steroids exactly work this out effectively (gel, tablets or injections?) and how long should I wait after fat transfer procedure to start with steroids? Are there any other ways to reduce the fat? Thank u
