Hi everyone, 

New here   I was wondering if anyone who has had fat grafting to their face in the past removed?

Long story short- I had fat grafting to my lower lids and uper cheeks in Canada in 2018 and I look terrible. I'm uneven/ lopsided and can't see out of my left eye when I smile.  Totally overfilled.

The fat is lumpy hard and painful.

Had anyone here had a similar issue- if yes were you able to find a Dr. who was willing to fix?

I'm getting discouraged as I emailed VIP clinic and they said they can't help me.  Any advice would be so appreciated- I have been avoiding smiling for 2 years now

Hey thanks for sharing this- I also have a science background although not a pharmacist.  Totally agree with the arnica. So many PS push it here even after filler injection saying it will make  buises go away faster- total BS!

I took the pellets once when I was too young to know any better, ended up having a severe allergic reaction and needed an epi pen injection.  Had no idea it was part of the daisy family which I am super allergic to.

Hi @happy1 I'm so sorry to hear your revision didn't turn out, I'm also looking at having a 3rd revision on eyes (lower bleph)  so know how frustrating it can be.  I hope you find a surgeon who can solve your issues once and for all.

Edit sorry I just saw your procedures in title! Can you tell im new here haha.

Sorry I can't answer your original question OP but wanted to ask is there a reason why friend said sept/oct is best time to go?  Is it less busy and/or are prices better this time of year?

I also contacted View yesterday and they already got back to me.  Looking to have lower eyes revision (to remove fat graft lumps)/ full face fat grafting / and something to fix my chicken neck LOL.  

What face procedures are you looking to do if you're ok sharing?

Hi Everyone,

I am Female, 32, Canadian, hoping to go to Korea in April or May for lower eye surgery revision and full face fat grafting.

Surgeries all done in Canada so far:

2018

Open rhinoplasty

Upper cheek and lower lid fat grafting (disastrous results)

Early 2019

Open Blephoroplasty to remove fat lumps and try to correct asymmetry caused by previous fat injections.

I am going to Korea because there are ZERO docs in Canada comfortable/expereienced in helping me.

Surgery in USA would cost me over 15k USD and with the CDN exchange it's just not doable and I can't find a doc who is confident in helping me either.
