Stephen, it is great to hear about your success. My treatment was in 2012 and my fibrosis has been getting worse and worse for the last 6-7 years. Been getting botox for 3 years with varying relief. I can get injections every 12 weeks but I have never had more than 6 or 7 weeks of relief. The last round in February did nothing. I would love to hear more on the plastic surgery option. Any insight on how to get into the Mayo Clinic? I can get a referral but would love to know the process.

@krayh if you look on their website you can see how to try to get in. Phone numbers are hard to get at Mayo, but the department that performs fat grafting is the plastics surgery group.

If need be, tag me in a message and I can figure out how to get the names of folks that I helped me.

@krayh, to get an appointment at Mayo Clinic, you can start here: https://mayocl.in/1mtmR63

You can self-refer or get your physician to submit a referral.
