i feel like a lot of people get discolation after fat grafting idk
how common is that?
also saw some tiktoker have it but never mention it after he recommended everyone should get under eye fat grafting

Fat grafting will only last for 2 years
Doesn’t come close to saddle infra implants
Don't bother

Implants will last 6 months before you need to do a revision because of implant show and/or bone erosion

depends on ur base. i would start with a infra fatgraft and see how the fat settles its low risk and low price.

For me most died in my infras prolly gonna get a second sess end of the year tho.

Couldve been a mix of hyperpigmentation and a lack of volume, im pretty sure if they use hydroquinone it would look a bit better.

The under eyes pretty much look the same as her surrounding skin except for the cheeks, could be makeup smthin like blush idk but i see some bruising there too which means its probably done not too long ago either.

Either way you likely will have to get fat grafting if you get an implant, if you already have a recession in the infraorbital and considering that its thin skin there, its very likely to cause the implant to show which means that you will probably need some sort of fat grafting to try add some volume to prevent that aswell. I mean other factors are included too, like how much projection/size the implant gives because thats a big part of if it would cause implant show or even the amount of fat you already have there, if you lack fat, how thin the skin is etc...

Yes it should go away, how long ago did that person get it before the picture? was it like taken straight after/on the same day?

I dont see the lumps ngl, maybe im blind. Plus they are claiming something about the clinic using kybella without a patients permission? ik that kybella can cause bruising too, but why would they use it on the under eye if they were doing fat grafting? (where the arrow is pointing)

Either way the clinic she did it in seems sketchy and probably shit so yea.

There's like a tiny bump under her eye that's fat that is placed too superficially and/or not filtered enough

Fat is yellow, depending on blood vessels in tve area and fat you will have change in color. Yellow and red

I thought that like 30% of the fat can become permanent

Yea sure that amount might still be there after 2 years but it will keep decreasing over time.
Some of it may remain permanently but if you’re a normal person who stays physically active that fat isn’t going to last long.
Only 50–60% of the fat survives in the first critical phase which is why surgeons often "overfill" their patients.
Most people need a touch up every 2–3 years continuously, in many cases a small malar implant with a midface lift can address the problem much more effectively.
I’m not saying fat grafting is bad but it’s often better used as a final touch up rather than the main solution.

I dont get this take.

After the initial integration period, being physically active doesn't kill fat cells. Transposed or otherwise. If someone needs a touch up every 2-3 years it's likely because the native cells in the area of the face atrophied due to age. Which is a somewhat special property in some facial fat compartments. It's not the case with the vast majority of fat. The other case would be because their tissues are sagging. In which case more fat grafting is stupid idea.

Yes if you have dramatic drop in bodyfat you might need more grafted but thats different then just being physically active in general, which is in essence a stable state and thus expectation would be homeostasis, not shrinking.

I've never heard of a woman going and getting a touch up for their BBL, hip dips, or tits to replenish the areas fat. Unless they were unhappy with their initial results.
So to be as low bf% is the goal for most fat ?
