2,5 years after buccal fat removal and fat grafting
WORTH IT$6,545
Hi lovelies,
It is really painful to read my old testimonial again about this procedure. I realize today how traumatized I was. I was 22 years old. I hadn't asked for anything. I felt good about myself. I didn't spend my time in front of my mirror, I didn't care, I was wild.
I realize how painful it was to have changed my appearance too quickly, to have had to wonder about the future of body changes, about aging, about everything.
In short, I want to tell you that I'm ashamed to read myself again, I'm ashamed of my weaknesses, I'm really ashamed of losing my identity following a cosmetic surgery that I didn't have solicited.
Today I'm going to be honest. Fat grafting worked on me. I thank again the doctor who helped me and saw me in a state of deep despair. At first I was scared, my face was swollen for 1 month... but the fat went away harmoniously.
Despite everything, my face is not exactly as it was before the buccal fat removal and I would never know what I would have looked like without these interventions. I just know that now I'm 26, my jaw line is less defined and my skin is more droopy.
That being said, my face isn't hollow and I'm pretty happy.
Thank you all for reading, supporting, writing.

Hey, hello everyone.
I wite you again for giving a little bit more informations.
I'm 24 now.
Fat transfer definitely works on me but fillers too. So, you can choose the best way for yourself to correct a hollowing look.
But, warning, you will never have your old apparence. Buccal fat pad removal is just not reversible because it's a very specific hard fat pocket in a very precise localisation. Now, the deflated aera if full but it's not full like before, when I'm chewing, you can definitely see a bizarre kind of hollow, like you can understand that there is something missing... and that's the truth...
But... after so much emotional pain, I feel better because I just accept the situation and the fact that I can never go back to the past... My face will never be exactly like before and I feel sad about it, some days are hard because I was so confident and now... it's not the same thing because I don't feel... "natural" anymore...
I really wanna have a facelift when I'm like 30 or 35 because I feel like my skin is become heavy and bit more sagging than beofre...
Depression, self hate, buccal fat pad removal, fat grafting and fillers causes so much trauma to my body in a short period of time...
I FEEL old now.
But, im not hollow.
So, keep hope and stay strong if you are in the same situation. There are so much good and compassionate surgeons.
Kiss

Thank you for sharing your experience.
I just don't know how to go on like this.

Thank you for keeping us updated. I’m so sorry this procedure happened to you and the rest of us, it’s like adding 15 years to your face and I’ve been suicidal because of it, seeing my skin loose and sag every day. Has the fat transfer stayed on your face? That’s the only option we have now but it will never replace the solid fat pad we had before…
Thank you so much for the update. For those of us with issues, not quite the same, but who are looking at fat transfer; it is so helpful.
I’m considering fat transfer. I got buccal fat removal done on one side this year and I’m devastated by the results. I’ve been a little depressed lately knowing I’ll never be able to go back to before. Did you get the surgery in the United States? If so, can I ask for the name of your surgeon? I’m currently researching options and I like the results from your fat transfer. Thanks so much for your help.
Hi, I also had a buccal fat removal and devastated by the results. I am considering going to Korea for improving this situation. But If you found any good surgeons who can fix this kind of problem, please share with me the contacts
Hi I am also considering going to Korea as it’s a common procedure there, have you found any good surgeons or clinics?
you're very young, with the fat transferred there it might make more or settle back, I hope it can repair to exactly before. good luck

Some hope
My fat transfer is going well until now. I smoked a lot but I think that a lot of fat survived but the result are not like my before face. I don't know how to explain but my face seems more aged but now : no skull face. I'm happy but I regret everyday of my life these 6 months of depression and self hate. I really try to kill myself for being such stupid and done that fucking fucking fucking shitty surgery "buccal fat removal"... what a mess. I will never look like myself again but now : it's not bad!
Best wishes my friends. I will post pictures after 1 month for being sure! :)

Please keep the hope. I promise you life is worth living even though we may have made mistakes that we regret. I understand the self hate this procedure can cause, as I am also working my way through it, but we must be hopeful that everything will be okay and that we will get through it. I am here as a support system if you would like someone to talk with. Please hang in there. It will get better
Do you also regret your buccal fat removal?
She does as well as me. We’ve all been connecting behind the scenes to share notes and help us find the best solutions.
Please message me i so regret buccal fat removal too. Ive been thinking about killing myself everyday. But I have 4 beautiful children that I have to finish raising. This is my biggest mistake I have ever made in my life.
Hi how are you? you can message me, I'm going through the same..
I wish you the best girl!
Thanks ♡
I am so happy to see this!!! yout are giving hope to all of us who deeply regret buccal fat removal!!!! Thank you for sharing your story. There are so many of us that didn’t even know of this procedure before walking through our surgeons doors or want buccal fat removal in the first place but had some pretty insistent doctors. Who look beautiful outside to match your inner beauty.
Don’t lose hope - there could be something in the future that could be better than what is currently available. Regenerative medicine shows a lot of promise too. Also it is very typically to perhaps have multiple fat grafting procedures so it might be an option. Don’t lose hope - we are in this together.
Hi, somehow I can‘t reach you via Phone. If you want to you can add me on instagram (Wingex). Let’s talk!
And I think you look absolutely beautiful still.
And I think you look absolutely beautiful still.
Sweetie don't worry! I've been in the same boat crying and crying I know how you feel. Buccal fat removal is horrible. But don't worry, you can get fat transfer again! Usually doctors will give discounts for touch ups and fat transfers usually need 2 or 3 touch ups! It's ok! It's good your doctor was conservative because you can always put more in you can't take more out.
How much fat did you get put in? And where? I did this to fix buccal fat removal and it looks horrible. I'm glad yours looks good!
Hey, why does it look horrible? In two weeks I want to do facial fat graft too because of liposuction irregularities in the face
Hello, i was wondering if you could tell me why it looks horrible?
