Had fat transfer to my face. Only 7 cc removed from lower abdomen but now I have 2 indentations. I just had it done 3 weeks ago and I know everything is still healing but I had botched lipo before and had 2 laser liposuction and finally a fat transfer to correct the problem. My PS wants to correct with kybella in the areas around the indentation. Will that work or do I need a fat transfer to the indentation?

Answer: Kybella treatments As you may know, 3 weeks post liposuction is too soon to consider it is usually advised to wait closer to 4 - 6 months for any treatments.After 4-6 months of healing and any pockets of fat need to be corrected, at that point kybella can be an option.

Answer: Abdominal Indentations Great question! The photos are helpful to track your progress. I agree with the other providers that 3 weeks post op is to soon the tell how your will heal. No matter the amount of fat that was removed you will have significant swelling to the area. Swelling can be worse if there is scar tissue in the area, as you said you have had liposuction in the past. Give yourself some time to heal. Compression garments/abdominal binders to the area can help. During the healing period many patients need Smoothshapes/lymphatic massages to help ensure they don't get lumps of bumps
