wishingstar Posted August 6, 2014 Posted August 6, 2014 When you guys did fat graft, were there any scars left on your thigh / wherever they harvested the fat?
anna85 Posted August 6, 2014 Posted August 6, 2014 Oh this sounds great, I'll discuss about this with my korean surgeon. Thank you again dear, Hope you're recovering well
k-couture Posted August 6, 2014 Posted August 6, 2014 most people wait for more than 6 months before getting their 2nd fat graft. For those who get it done before the 6 month mark its because they unfortunately experience too much resorption or low graft survivability. Best is to monitor it yourself by taking a collage of photos under similar lighting
thoebee Posted August 7, 2014 Posted August 7, 2014 Hi K, Idk but the docs I went to visit for all 3 clinics said to come back for second time FG within 3 months.. Think it's also cos they can only keep the fats they withdrew the first for 3 months only.
a9grace Posted August 21, 2014 Posted August 21, 2014 Be very cautious Careful with fat grafting...doctors are hiding the facts.. See book called "cosmetic surgery and lying deceitful doctors: what they won't tell you about plastic surgery" by Kimberly gavondrich ...ebook on Amazon...it helped make decisions on rhinoplasty and fat transfer..
a9grace Posted August 22, 2014 Posted August 22, 2014 before proceeding again with fat grafting, check out the book called "cosmetic surgery and lying, deceitful doctors: what they won't tell you about plastic surgery" by Kimberly gavondrich...you need to think critically about this surgery since it produces 100% uneven results on your gorgeous face...this book sheds light on the things you must know...I found it very helpful and I am trying to help others
moreen Posted August 24, 2014 Posted August 24, 2014 did you use non scar treatment to help with scar? I got bumpy scar on rib from rib nose surgery been more than a year still no disappear. I scared if they take from thigh i cannot wear short dress anymore because maybe will have another bumpy red scar.
myeon Posted August 24, 2014 Posted August 24, 2014 Hi, and do you know if I can wear makeup about 7 days op?
lanvinfiend Posted August 25, 2014 Posted August 25, 2014 I've heard it's not recommended, as you may put unnecessary pressure on the fg when applying/removing makeup.
wishingstar Posted August 25, 2014 Posted August 25, 2014 Is the 2nd visit 3 months later almost always needed in order to get permanent results? (Also, are results really ever permanent with a fat graft?) I'm considering a fat graft, but I'm not sure I can return to Korea in 3 months!
k-couture Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 no if you have to go in for a second top 3 in months means something didn't go well with your surgery or you were not careful with your graft post op. 6-8 months is the most common period for top ups
wishingstar Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 Got it - it sounds like a top up is inevitable, though, right? (at the 6-8 months mark) Have you heard of anyone that had great permanent results after just 1 graft?
