Itchy Skin after Fat Transfer

Postby cindy79 » Sat Nov 27, 2010 1:00 pm

Have you ever had a patient experience itchy skin where fat was injected? And not immediately afterward - like a year later?

Could this be a sign of an infection? Or is that just a sign that the fat has gained a new blood supply that you mention.

i have never heard of such a thing. most likely you just have a skin condition that is unrelated.
