LAM FACIAL PLASTICS

Hi Dr.Lam

I had fat grafting about three months ago. I've been quite ill the last couple of days feeling really under the weather and particularly under my eyes the graft is not looking very good at all. I would like to know in your opinion whether being ill can make one look worse and affect the fat at all and if the graft should look better once i recover from feeling ill?

Thanks Dr.Lam

2 things:
1. i guess that sickness could just dehydrate you so that you look worse so that is most likely normal.
2. plus, IF I DID THE PROCEDURE, then you are most likely going through the "dip" which is the lowest time of a fat graft result (after the swelling is gone but the result has not shown up post 6 montths). only 20% go through low enough a dip that it is noticeable, but just sit tight. it will look better and better and better after 6 months and peak 2 years later. IF YOU ARE NOT MY PATIENT, DISREGARD ALL ADVISE ABOVE BECAUSE TRULY IT DOES NOT APPLY TO YOU.
best,
sml
