WORTH IT

Hello. I am 33 years old. I had no cheeks what so ever, through out the years I lost volume on my lips and cheeks do to over using micro current. I decided to get fat transfer to my face. Fat was removed from my lower abdomen while I was sedated. I got fat transferred on lips, frown lines, small dent on nose, cheeks, and nasal folds. It's been 5 days today after my procedure, not much swelling from anywhere but my lips. My lips look enourmouse and I am very nervous about them. My cheeks look amazing, my frown lines are invisible as well as my under eye wrinkles, I know I am still swollen but I didn't bruise much. I hope this lasts. I will make a review very soon.

Hi there! I really love your results and I think I need the same procedure. Can you share the name of the doc who did your fat transfer ?

Were you nervous getting it done in Mexico? I'm looking to have this done also but it's really expensive in LA one doctor quoted $9,000...your results look great! Would love to know what u thought about your experience choosing TJ, thanks!

Hi. Thank you for reading my post. The first time I had surgery with this dr (breast implants 2004)it was scary but I did make sure he was a certified plastic surgeron and I also made a lot of research, and I did go for several analysis and consultations with him. When i would arrive I saw soooo many of his clients and some of my friends who had surgery with him were very happy and excited. At first I actually thought it was too much of a good thing. Lol. Then my best friend had surgery a week before I did and omg. She looked beautiful. So I did go in and my results were soooo good. I can say perfect and better than I had ever imagined. Lol. Then this time around I wasn't nervous I was very happy and the price was great. So I went in happy and excited since I saw how he does his jobs. I love it. But there are is a well recognized dr his name is Dr. Buenrostro in Tijuana where even celebrities have surgery with. I have heard he is great but he does charge a bit more. But I am sure not as much as in Los Angeles. By the way I live in San Diego California. Mexico is close so I have so many advantages like cheap but well done dentists and plastic surgery. You should think about paying 9000. Its a lot. In Mexico you get a total makeover and you will still have money left. Lol. By the way drs also accept credit card and they work with a finance company in the us where they can finance your surgery and you make payments. It's like a loan. Think about it. If you have anymore questions let me know.

6 days post

Day 6 after face graft and lips

aniemoreNovember 10, 2016

Lips still look huge. My problem is the duck profile and how fake they look. I have to go back to work and this seems not to help. I don't want anyone to know I had anything done. I still have pain on my lower abdomen from the fat removal. I am now taking coffe as a diuretic, Tylenol and Zyrtec for inflammation. Still very stressed and sad a bit depressed that I can't go anywhere. My husband says I look like a duck.

6 days means you're def still swollen! Some people swell for longer. It can take weeks for all of it to go down. But anyway, the swelling will go down and over the weeks you will probably lose a lot of fat from your lips because they move so much. So I wouldn't worry! It'll be 4-6 months before you know your complete final results. It's too early to worry :)

I've had fat transfer to breasts and I am at 2.5 weeks. They were super hard and gorged the first week, but gradually got softer and more natural. I would expect similar process for other areas, including face. Hope it helps!

Yes. I also believe so. I am only on my first week today. I am doing this review cause I couldn't find one online. Maybe this will help someone in the future. This will also be my records just incase i want to re do this. Lol

I needed to read your comment. I'm 8 days out and I look like I've got balloons on my lips. So ready for it to go down. I also had my chin lipo and I have scar tissue already setting up. Any suggestions?
