WORTH IT
Hi everyone--I have not posted in awhile and just wanted to give you an update. I am still seeing Dr D and had Fat Transfer in June 2018.. I just like to do a touch up every other year when I can see a slight change before it is really noticeable to anyone else. Hope you like the results as much as I do. Email me with any questions at Jada0719@gmail.com.

Thank you for updates. I am supposed to have this procedure with the same doctor but am not clear if the fat transfers last. You look great. I emailed you but did not hear back. If you could respond, I would appreciate it. Thank you..

Hi, I did not see your email? Please email me again. I think that the success of the Fat transfer depends on your body itself. I really never let my fat get completely absorbed in my body. I am concerned that it will since I normally I am a thin person and of course when i loose weight it comes from my face. I think that you will have to understand that it really depends. I have been getting fat transfers for years now: probably at least every 2-3 years or so, at most. I just save my money and get a touch up. For me it's like if your hair is naturally dark and you want it blonde you have to keep dying it to stay blonde because that is not your natural color; the natural aging process cannot stop the fat from being absorbed in your body. I think that my cheeks may be a little full, but i prefer to have a little more fat than less, since for me I loose fat when I loose weight. For me, i accept that I will continue to get the fat transfer if I want to keep my face full. I don't mind paying because i am so pleased with the outcome, so i just save for. But the biggest thing that i want to say to you is that if you look at previous pix you can see that my face is full because i keep adding fat every other year, that is if Dr D, agrees that I should do it..and do not let it absorb completely. My face is full right now, but probably next year or the next i will get a look touch up ..if needed.... its like air in your tire that is going flat .. you have to keep adding air, but sometimes not as much Dr. D will explain.... ... (fat).. it just depends on how much fat you want or if you can stand it when the fat dissolves and i cannot. Hope this helps.. Just be patient and understand the outcome depends on your body and how it absorbs it and if you are willing to continue to do the fat transfer. I am sure you will pleased .. but as I have said these pix are not from just one session.. this is a accumulation of years keeping fat in my face. email also and let me know how things work out for you.

Thank you for your honest answer. I sent you a direct message. I have had 3 fat transfers to my face and they lasted on a few days or weeks. I tried a different doctor who is known to be successful with fat transfers and the fat has lasted years. This doctor doesn't no work on faces though. I just don't want to keep wasting my time and money to have FT that absorb in a short time.

what email is are sending it from? Can you resend? I will look out for it.. Well Dr D does take as much fat as he can and I ask him to take as much as he can.. I like more fat because i know that it is going to be absorbed fast.. and i accept my cheeks may be a little be fuller.. but i would rather have a little more than a a thin face.. and do regular touch ups every year, or every other, two years is the most, or when I feel that I see that fat is getting absorbed fast.... I have been told not to sleep on my face, not by Dr D but someone who had fat transfer (not there).. full I have Dr. D put in as much as possible, and come almost every year.. so I just save my money because I know that I will have to have fat evenually....hope this helps.. email me again and i can give you specifics if needed.. like i take a sedative to relax so Dr. D can do what he needs to do and I will be comfortable while he is doing.. talk to you soon!

Fat should not absorb though unless it is dead fat where the wrong techniques are used. I found only one doctor who does fat transfers that last so you do not need to do touch ups. I ask Dr. D's office for after photos of fat transfer that were a year out and I was igjnored.
