Fat Transfer to Cheeks and Hands Under General Anesthesia - Rosemont, IL

I was seeking rejuvenation for both areas, and also beautification for the cheeks. The results far exceeded my expectations. It easily took 15, perhaps even 20 years off my hands. Raising the cheeks has had a significant positive effect on how I am perceived but is subtle enough that few will expect that any procedure has been done.
There was an enormous boost in my self confidence, and this was reflected in better job performance. I even won the "Most Outstanding" award in my area (out of about 40 - 50 professionals).
I only wish I'd known about these types of procedures, and Dr. Szczerba, earlier.

Yay!!! So glad to hear that. It is interesting and good news the recovery is so fast and you do not have a huge downtime. I have very old looking hands so I was curious about this treatment. For some reason my entire life they have been very wrinkly.
If you ever decide to upload photos of your hands we would love to see them!
Again, thank you for sharing. :)

Hi again Kate,
Do you think it would be all that useful without a "before" picture?
In any event, I don't have a camera and feel a little weird about approaching somebody and saying , "Hey, would you take a picture of my hands? (smile)

What an awesome review, and congratulations on your award!!! How was the pain with the fat transfer, and I'm curious to know the recovery for fat transfer to hands. Were you unable to use them for a while?
Thank you so much for your testimonial!

Thank you for your kind words (smile).
My hands were a little sensitive for a few weeks, but I it didn't interfere with my ability to do anything (it might have made it difficult to wear gloves... I don't know because I did this in the summer).
And it was a few weeks before the swelling came down - before that they looked a bit strange.
I am VERY glad I did this. Before I had a reasonably youthful face but my hands gave away my age. Not anymore (grin!).
