lyga Posted June 27, 2013 Posted June 27, 2013 Hi, May I know where did you do your fat grafting? Sorry I dont think u can PM me as I dont have enough posts.
itsumobaby Posted June 27, 2013 Posted June 27, 2013 I've never hear of chingdam u, can u please give me a bit more info about them?
twinnie Posted June 28, 2013 Posted June 28, 2013 Actually you do not hear much about this clinic...I knew it because I was told that a few days before a person had undergone surgery, and since I was interested in the same surgery, I immediately booked. There's a post on this clinic : # I found myself well...then, however, I have to wait 3/4 months. I'm patient...I hope to see soon the results, because now my face is very far from the final look! But I like my forehead!
itsumobaby Posted July 2, 2013 Posted July 2, 2013 Thank you for sharing, how many months post op are you and did the doctor tell you how long will the fat graft last and will you have to do a refill op?
winli Posted July 4, 2013 Posted July 4, 2013 may i know average how much for fat grafting?appreciated if anyone can share with me [email protected]
twinnie Posted July 4, 2013 Posted July 4, 2013 I did f.g. on may 21, until now the fat is left in its place. The doctor didn't tell me anything about refills, he told me that I have to wait four months to see the final result, and that a small portion may be reabsorbed.
starrymunchiez Posted July 4, 2013 Posted July 4, 2013 Hi TwiNnie, how much does your fat grafting at iou cost?
twinnie Posted July 4, 2013 Posted July 4, 2013 For ptosis correction+eyelid lowering+upper and under eye fat graft I've paid $4950.
starrymunchiez Posted July 4, 2013 Posted July 4, 2013 Thanks for your reply, is your ptosis fixed after the surgery? Does it look ok now? i'm now 2 weeks post-op from iou, did ptosis correction + dbl eyelid revision. Unfortunately, my right eye looks like it still has ptosis, my left eye's ptosis is fixed but my old crease is still there, resulting in triple fold. I really wish i do not have to go back for fat grafting.
twinnie Posted July 4, 2013 Posted July 4, 2013 I'm sorry for what happened to you! Now my eyes are open, even if the heat causes them to swell and, at times, they seem different, but then return to normal. However, they have yet to heal.
itsumobaby Posted July 5, 2013 Posted July 5, 2013 How long were u swollen for and does it look overfilled at first? Did the doc tell you how long will the fat last? Sorry for asking so many questions!
twinnie Posted July 5, 2013 Posted July 5, 2013 I have to tell you the truth, I don't find it overfilled even at the beginning. The forehead is very different from before, but it is a matter of habit... I see a little less swollen, but exactly the same as it was before. The doctor didn't tell me what will be reabsorbed, but he told me it would be a small part. I'm sorry not to be more comprehensive, but I don't know the percentages of resorption, also because I read on internet that for some people the settling time is even for six months, whereas there are others who would like to have a flatter forehead but now the fat is stabilized and they cann't do anything... Is also a matter of metabolism, ability of doctor and also postoperative care. You must not touch, press or "use" the front to prevent them from taking strange shapes.
cute_lil_fiend Posted July 5, 2013 Posted July 5, 2013 Since one of the main disadvantages of fat grafting is the potential need for multiple grafts, I wonder how many clinics are able to stand behind their work and offer complimentary revisional grafts until results are satisfactory.
itsumobaby Posted July 6, 2013 Posted July 6, 2013 Thank you for your detailed reply. It will be hard for me not to 'press' the fat grafted area since its the cheeks that I wanted to do fat grafting with. Do u notice any strange sensation on your forehead after the fat graft? And did you use GA ( general anesthesia) or partial ? The doctors that I have seen so far told me they will store the batch of far up to 6 months in case of a second refill.
