Is 60cc fat transfer (30cc on each side) a safe amount for a natural outcome?

after my consultation with my surgeon I was given feedback that he’d be performing 30cc on each side of my face(spread out in multiple portions). The goal is to feminize my face. Is the a lot of facial fat grafting? I’m trying to understand what’s a safe amount and what would give me a realistic and natural outcome?

It is always better to try to dissolve filler before injection of fat grafts. However, you may like to wait 6-8 months for filler to resorb spontaneously; very frequently filler encapsulates and stays in the place for number of months. Best is to discuss this with your surgeon. Good luck.

Fat grafting to the upper eyelid can definitely help with the hollowing... as for the dryness, this is almost certainly related to excessive muscle excision, which is going to be much harder to restore. I recommend trying to work on the squeezing of your eye muscles (blinking) and practicing...

Fat transfer to the face can sometimes heal unevenly because not all transferred fat survives in the same way on both sides. Swelling, natural facial asymmetry, and variations in fat retention can all contribute to areas that appear fuller or irregular. When localized fat collections or contour...
