Face Liposuction Gone Wrong ?
ORIGINAL POST
Face Liposuction Gone Wrong ?
I am 35, and I had a face liposuction two days ago.
I did not like the extra fat I had in my high cheek bone.
I gained weight and it became worse. I liked my new body but not my face.
knowing that generally the cheek area is considered as very delicate and that the fat removal remains subtle, I asked 4 doctors about the procedure. One of them said that he is used to face liposuction and I saw videos of him performing it. So I trusted him.
Now, I am left with a depression in my cheek bone. I told him that I did not want the higher area of my cheek bone to be removed, since I was looking for a reduction of the fat of the middle of the zygomatic zone, close to the nose area.
I also have swelling and bruising under my lower eyelids. I told him I did not want any fat to be removed there.
When I sent him photos, he pretended that the result is normal and that the depression will not last.
I am planning to see him next week, 7 days post op.
But I am freaking out, and I am convinced that he took more fat than I wanted, and I m afraid I look older, and weird.
Can you help me please with your advices ? Do you think there would be a solution in case the intervention really did go wrong ? I am looking for a job and I need to do something about that as quickly as possible. Do you think I can resort to fillers in the meantime and what would be the risks of doing so ?
I am looking forward to your feedbacks.
PS : I uploaded photos: 1 of my cheeks before I gained weight, 3 others after I gained weight and before the liposuction, 4 others after the procedure. I hope you will be able to have an idea of the results.

You’ve got to remain calm, it’s all very normal to be crazed with your initial results. You are very swollen still, especially after a very invasive procedure. You will be singing a different song in two-three weeks!!
Healing hugs and vibes
Thanks a lot the good vibes ! Most of the swelling went down but I still have irregularities when I smile.
I am seeing the surgeon tomorrow and I will keep you posted.
Thank you again,
June

Hi June, anything new from your end? I am in the same situation. The surgeon told me not to worry about the depression and irregularities. Now after 7 months I still have them and I tried filler, but even that did not help. I am so devastated. Looking for a fat transfer now.
Cheeks liposuction is not very common since people look for fat transfer to enhance the cheekbone area. I tried to find reviews about the procedure but all I could find was about chin liposuction.
Thank you again !
