I took my own fat and the swelling has not gone down after 6 days

Nowadays, a more popular plastic surgery method is autologous fat filling, which can be used for breast augmentation or facial filling. The effect is very good and looks very natural, but there will be swelling right after the filling, which is a normal phenomenon. Some people also ask why the swelling has not gone down after 6 days of autologous fat filling? Everyone's physical condition is different, so it is normal if the swelling does not go away within six days. The swelling will start to subside after about a week.

What is autologous fat grafting?

Autologous fat filling is currently the "magic assist" for creating an exquisite "heart-shaped face". By sucking out the patient's own fat cells, purifying them, and then injecting them into the sunken cheeks, it can achieve the effects of plumping up the temples, apple muscles, chins, etc., so as to quickly present a youthful baby face~

How to reduce swelling after autologous fat grafting?

Autologous fat facial filling is a surgery after all, so it is normal to experience swelling after the surgery. The swelling will generally last for 2-3 days and will gradually subside after about a week. However, everyone's physical condition is different, and the time for swelling to subside and recovery will be different, so some post-operative care work must be taken seriously.

Swelling care items:

1. Although there will be bruises and pain on the first day after surgery, do not take painkillers. Just be patient and let it go away on its own.

2. Avoid rubbing and massaging your cheeks one week after surgery, and avoid getting the needle hole wet to avoid infection;

3. During the postoperative recovery period, do not eat spicy food, eat more vegetables and fruits, and drinking and smoking are strictly prohibited.

TIPS: Fat will be absorbed after being injected into human tissue. Therefore, it is recommended to do a second filling 3 months after facial filling, so that the shaping effect and maintenance time will be better.
