first fill postop



Recommended Posts

I made my appt for my first fill and it lands only 4 weeks out after my surgery. Is that ok or too early? The next appt time I could get is 2 months postop and I dont know which is better. Any advice?

Some doctors begin fills at 4 weeks and some at 6 or longer, I guess it depends on who you see.

Not everyone has had fills (I haven't) and are losing weight just fine. There are a lot of variables.

I'd guess that you're healed well enough for a fill. Try it and see if there are any problems, if so

you can always have some taken out.

I had my first fill exactly 4 weeks after surgery, 4cc's. Then 2 more after that, 4 weeks apart for a total of 3.

Once I hit that green zone, I see him 8 week intervals.
