You must demand an appointment, usually the first one is about 4 weeks after surgery to check you and give you your first fill. I agree you should of met him before surgery you should of pushed for this! Don't despair....he can't just ignore your pleas for support you are entitled to it, as you will need on-going appointments for the fills. Good Luck

Hello MommaB... I had my proceedure done 7 days ago and feel good that I went ahead and had it done, as like you I was very frightened and unsure as I kept hesitating should I shouldn't I.....It is turning out to be one of the best decisions of my life!! You have the right attitude it is not a miracle cure one has to work with it eating healthier smaller portions....But I am convinced that the results will be outstandingly rewarding! Stay positive and Go with it....Good Luck!
