Lips & smile change after fat transfer to cheeks forehead nose & chin

ORIGINAL POST

Fat Transfer to Forehead, Chin, Nose Bridge and Nose Tip

yscrtJanuary 5, 2024
Somehow i regret getting a fat transfer on these areas. I only ask the doctor for my cheeks but she added also the forhead and chin. As for the nose area.she asked me first, at first i dont want it. But she still convincing to do it.until i said okay. Now my face is bulgy everytime i smile. I cant smile the same as before. I already at my 3 weeks op . I have swellings sometimes but very little. A lot has come down. I am wondering if a lot more will go down. Also the fats on chin and nose area, how much fat will retain there. Will the fat absorb later in a few months?

Your after photo looks really beautiful. Obviously I'm just looking at a pic on the internet but it looks like a major structural improvement from before. Maybe you need some time to adjust to the changes?

No not at all. I’m saying the changes look good and maybe it takes some time for you to adjust.

Lips and Smile Change After Fat Transfer

yscrtFebruary 13, 2024

About 2months ago i had facial fat transfer cheeks forehead nose and chin. Nasolabial folds i am not sure. I only address to the doctor the hollowness of my face after rf device damage. And after the surgery i am surprised she also fill the chin and forhead. I also have fat transfer to nose which she convinced me but i didnt like the result. I dont like my smile now. I have blocky squary cheeks now when i smile. I cant show my upper gums without effort when i am talking and smiling. I think my mouth shrink, the opening looks small when i talk. I used to have big and wide lips when i open my mouth. Both upper and lower looks pull in inside. Is it because i still have some swelling? I cant properly move the upper and lower lips corner. Or skewed my lips. Is it because the nerve damage temporarily or permanent ? How long will it take to recover ? Any exercise to help fix and improve my lips?

Hi! I had facial fat transfer 3 weeks ago. 90% of the swelling went down but I also kind of regret it. I know its early to say but… My lips has bumps. He recommended me supermodel look which involved the sin area insted if my requested kinimal facial harmonization. Now when I smile my face is so wide and square. If you want to talk about it lets share numbers! - Meli

where abouts on your nose, lips and forehead was it transferred? You have lovely lips. Do they curl under after FT? You are still early so there is hope. I don't like it at all that doctors are over-selling. I am 2 years out of debilitating transfer where, like you, the doctor did it in areas without discussing with me. The places he placed it that already had natural fat went down, so that was just swelling. But those were the acceptable places. The places that were adjacent to muscle or bone stayed and stiffened and I lost ability to express myself because the movement is not natural anymore. It hurts to smile or try to open my eyes. I also have ridiculous mounds along my jawline that lengthen and narrow my face. Have you contacted your doctor to see if she will help?

I dont have fat transfer on lips. I have on nose which she convinced me. And somehow i dont like it and alters my look.she said just a little bit but 2cc is too much. I also have in forehead. Luckily, some dissolved. Coz i dont want rounded forehead. Everytime i look in the mirror.i want to puke. I look like a fake. I told her already.she said everything is okay. I will come back again after onths and see if my lips will comeback to normal again. Hoping this is just a swelling. Me too i feel the fat now are too stiff. And i am controlling my smile because it makes my face looks wierd
