weight loss

This section of the forum is dedicated to discussions on various surgical techniques for facial rejuvenation, including fat transfer/fat grafting, browlift, blepharoplasty (cosmetic eyelid surgery), facelift, etc. Also, this category includes questions on hand rejuvenation via fat grafting. (Of note, Dr. Lam does not perform body rejuvenation except for hand fat grafting)

weight loss

Hi Dr. Lam,

If a patient lost about 5 lbs. after full facial fat transfer, would it cause any issues with new fat transfer?

thx

usually not. my fear is weight gain like 20 to 30 pounds after. it could make your face look fatter or not as attractive.

Hi,,
In general case not,, But you should conscious about it.. If you are not satisfied contact to your
personnel doctor, i think he help you a lot to satisfied and resolve your problems.. Some times, we ignore little things but after some time they appear in form of big problem...

in general, brice. this forum is for people to ask me questions i help them with advice. it is better to have questions rather than advice from the participants if at all possible. thanks though for participating.
