1 Year later!

It's been a year, and I know one of the biggest questions regarding fat transfer is: Will the fat stay? Ive had my fair share of lip locking, ups and downs in my weight, and none of that changed the amount of fat cells in my lips! I emailed my doc (Henderson) for some photos cause after all- my camera is not the best lol. And this profile view really really captures the added projection and shape retention! It looks so natural and so good, and best of all, it feels like all my own. Maybe in 10 years I'll add some more, but for now I am super happy with how they turned out.

Final Result

I have lost a little weight and my lips were subjected to a bit of winter dryness, but here is the final result with no swelling. The lips have 0 scars from the injection sites, and there are no lumps or loss of sensation.

Week 1

  • 5 Oct 2015
  • 12 days post
Thanks to a diet of almost all protein, less than 20mg of sodium a day, Arnica Montana (both oral and gel), bromelain supplements, light exercise, and icing continuously (45 mins on, 15 off every hour); my lip swelling was mostly resolved within 1 week. No pain and full sensitivity. My boyfriend does not even feel the addition. In his words, "It just feels like lips; only more lips now." Love love love it!

Take your time reading my full review, it is a lot of writing, but this is YOUR FACE we are dealing with. You cannot hide a botched face surgery! A few places in Scottsdale charge a consultation fee, which I am sure nets them more cash, but puts pressure on the client to get a procedure. Here, the consultation is free, and they do not rush you out the door if you have a lot of questions. I've probably had 3 consultations before I actually chose to have the procedure. Oh and I don't want to forget to mention Olivia, who is not only enthusiastic, but also pairs perfectly with Dr Henderson's well-rounded coverage of expectations and results. -Anyways- the procedure: During the surgery, which Dr Henderson and her scrub tech calmly talked me through the entire procedure. We joked about AC/DC while she was removing fat from my belly. When i felt worried about pain, Dr Henderson added local to the area without question. After the surgery, everything was very swollen, but Olivia bounded right in and assured me everything would be beautiful. Meanwhile, Dr Henderson went over the details for aftercare and the scrub tech (I feel like a jerk for not remembering her name) finally walked me out to my car. That's right! The whole procedure was done without anesthesia, so that lowered the cost, and allowed me to drive myself home rather than having to show my swollen lips to anyone! I can not wait til post op to see the final results! PM if you have any questions or want to see extra photos.
