Fat transfer might look great for up to 2 years. But it is expensive procedure, thus I'd like to get evidence based knowledge that does it really stay and start living in the spot where it was injected? Is it really a safe procedure. Why there is no true evidence base for this? I can see patient of TJM in San Francisco has few reviews up. First she has over stuffed look and 5 years after it looks like none of it stayed and its only the tight skin left from the aggressive facelift (sidepull).
I'm a little over 48 hours post op from lipo from abdomen and flanks with fat transfer to hips only. My lipo areas feel great with very little pain but my fat grafted areas feel incredibly tight and make it a bit hard to move around. How long should I expect this pain and what can I do for the tightness if anything?
Hi, today is exactly 4 weeks post op.Lower eyelids still hurt and feel the hardness/tightness when blinking the eyes or when the eye muscles (love bands) move at any facial expressions. My puffy dark circles have become 2 big round puffy panda eyes now. I am disappointed with the much lower and prominent tear trough lines. I am already thinking of doing lower blepharoplasty to remove those fat. How soon can i do it? Thanks in advance!

I have fat transfer to my cheek bones, jawline, upper & lower lipps last week May 13th. My face feel frozen, my lips hardened like gummy bears inside them. Some fat clumps on my cheeks area and jawlines. It feel tight when I sneeze, cough, smile, talk even brushing teeth. At times feeling numbness and tingling around the cheek bones area. My lips do not moved like they use too and no feeling when applying lipstick or liner. Can any professional advice available? Is this normal for fat transfer?
can we inject fats in a very tight skin that no thing under it but only titanium mesh no fat no muscle so there is no space between the skin and the mesh .. can we put fats into it gradually like 100 ml then 100 ml then 100 ml tell the area gets the right volume? it is the temporal area .. and is it the best option .. and what are the backsides if this procedure can be done ?
