How is it?? The same thing has happened to me in my right cheek and I’m so scared. It ruptured on it’s own after 12 days and I’ve been draining it at home but there is a huge mass. I sent in a culture. What did yours come back as? Do you still have a mass/lump in your face? Hope everything is well now...

Well I went to the doctor today and he said I have an infection he drain the puss out off my check it hurt like crazy !!! He took 25cc out my face !!!!I have to go back Tuesday ,
Oh no sorry to hear that! Prayers are lifted for everything to go well. Is this doctor knowledgable on fat transfers? I hear many similar stories and some doctors claim to know how to perform this very tricky procedure. Get well doll!
How are things today?
Was the sweeping from the transfer or from the infection?
Do you have any photos of how your face was before the procedure that you could post?
yes i have i just dont know how to post them !!! getting better every day !
I just posted more info about my face and how I'm doing , is been 3 month and I still have my face infected the doctor doesn't have and answer for me if anyone can help me to get my face back I will really appreciate.
Praying for you. Have patience, try to take care of the infection first, and then worry about the cosmetic part. So sorry this happened to you. Some of these doctors have no business practicing.
