First Fill Discomfort

I've just received my first fill. Doc put 4 cc at surgery & put .5 cc as my first fill. I asked him to go easy because i didnt want the chance of being overly tight when i know he & staff will be off for the thanksgiving holiday. I've lost 15lbs since surgery a little less than four weeks ago. My question is... My port area is still giving my discomfort, even more since I was filled. Is this normal? Seems like the port sits right where I bend. I can't seem to get comfortable, good thing I can where dresses because wearing pants just kills me!!

Hi I had mine done 4 weeks now. Had a filled already on Tuesday, It's giving me discomfort only when bending down, not that much as when I had surgery. If you have discomfort all the time and 4weeks already check it out.

Hi you are still fresh out. Just take it easy and nooo jeans. I wore dresses for a couple weeks. Your port area will be sensitive as it is setting into your tissues so that it stays in place. You will be ok. Congrats on the 15lbs!
