35 Yo in Need of Fat Transfer

WORTH IT$3,300
I suffered a blunt injury to my forehead several years ago which left me with a loss of fat and muscle leading to a very evident depression along my upper forehead. It was very embarrassing for me and needed to do something about it. My AMAZING plastic surgeon, Dr. Nelson Castillo of Sandy Springs, GA, had been treating me with successful injections of Juvederm. However, I wanted a more permanent solution as I do not do well with needles. The Fat Transfer procedure was very quick to perform and I am so very happy I decided to do it. It was instant gratification and had next to no downtime. The area that needed the most healing was actually the fat harvest site (my belly). My forehead experienced NO PAIN or discomfort afterwards....and NO noticeable scarring.

Hello and thank you for sharing :) I wanted to know, if you would like to tell us, do you know if after the extraction, the fat was centrifuged or processed in any way? thank you!
Once extracted he did clean/purify the fat before injecting it. I did not pay attention to that process as I was trying my best to relax.
Has fat lasted? Gone away?
I would say that at least 80% of the fat injected has stayed in place and not re absorbed. Awesome results in my opinion!!!
Did any of the fat migrate or did it stay in place?
