Touch up

Sorry if it took me almost a month to update my fat transplant journey I was out the country.
Anyway, I had my fat transfer touch up done last March 16 this time the procedure was just quick, easy and much less painful than the 1st time as liposuction wasn't part of it anymore since he had my remaining fat (lol sounds gross) stored already and just like any other frozen goodies he had it thawed into room temperature before injecting it to the area of my face where the previous fat didn't survived. Few numbing injections and it took him less than 30 mins and it was all done. It didn't bruise that much at all and it's not even painful that I managed to went home that day by taking a train from chicago to suburb. The following day I was already out the house and just the usual make up coverage concealer(green for bruises) and foundation.
Overall my opinion on this journey hasn't changed as I think it was all worth it...Yea just like everyone else it scared and made me worry of all every possibilities of what if this and that will never work and I just end up looking worst and wasting my money. But I guess if we just set up a much realistic goals and with proper research we won't end up disappointed. We can't be in our 60s and wanting to look like in our 20s. (I wish) Fat transfer to me is my best option, its my personal choice of wanting something natural and "organic" that evolves with time and knowing my body will not reject it I have nothing to worry. :). Goodluck to you all beautiful ladies. I think I'm done here...for now.

Dr. Shifin is really nice and very friendly. After meeting him for the very 1st time I knew right then that I'll be taken cared of. He is very professional and very understanding when I explained to him my situation. He is the kind of person that by talking to him for the 1st time you could easily tell then hes not going to bulll sh*t you by trying to sell you or recommend you a procedure you dont need or the 1 that wont work for you. Hes very smart and full of confidence. I don't know what else to say...All I know is that I became 1 of his fans the day I walked out on his clinic. Speaking of clinic ...the facility is very clean as well and his staff are very friendly. I coordinated 1st with Adrian (very nice lady) regarding scheduling and payment and during my procedure I had Paul who assisted Dr. Shifin and ofc Connie who my best friend that day as she helped me up putting my clothes on and assisting me the very best that she can the entire time (which I am very greatful of). The clinic is very very very very busy too so many people walking in and out and its always a very good sign. Consultation is free so it's a big plus! Oh yea and my angioma issues Dr. Shifrin removed it for FREE!!!!!
