The sequelae of autologous fat augmentation

1. Infection: Generally, this situation does not happen often. It is usually caused by unhygienic operation by the doctor or failure to provide good postoperative care. However, this situation is relatively serious. Therefore, once an infection occurs, you must go to the hospital for treatment in time.

2. Bleeding: If the damage during liposuction is severe, bleeding may occur. If the bleeding is severe, hematoma may form, so you need to go to the hospital for treatment.

3. Nodules: If the injected fat particles condense into lumps, nodules may occur. This situation usually occurs three months after the operation. Generally, if there are no discomfort symptoms, no special treatment is required.

4. Poor shape: Due to insufficient fat absorption or different amounts of absorbed fat, local skin depression may occur. This situation is mostly caused by improper operation of the doctor.

1. Infected hematoma. This is usually caused by the doctor's incorrect technique or the presence of infection in the surgical area. If the patient does not take waterproof measures at the injection site after the operation, infection may occur.

2. Fat liquefaction. If too much fat is injected locally, or the injected fat gathers into lumps, the survival rate of the fat will be affected, resulting in fat liquefaction.

3. Nerve damage. If the doctor accidentally injures the local nerve during the operation, it may cause nerve damage.
