I'm Very Intersted in Getting Fat Injections or Fat Transfers for Volume Loss in my Face- Who Are The Best Drs?

By bambi07 on 11 Jan 2012

I'm younger and have always taken good care of my skin but being thin I have noticed a loss of volume at the top of cheeks and along the nl folds. It's very confusing searching for a doctor who has had a great success rate with this procedure. I would like to know who the best doctors are for this procedure? I'm just looking to restore a more youthful me nothing too extensive. I'm planning on getting cosmetic fillers first to make sure I would like the permanent results.

Hi Bambi07

I had a facelift and fat transfer done in November 2009 and I couldn't be happier with the results. I liked the results so much that I went back for a second stage fat transfer in November 2010. I am thin so the doctor had a hard time finding enough fat to add fat to my temple and forehead. So I had this done the second time around and had a little more added to my cheeks.

I have had many compliments. People that don't know I have had work think I am doing my hair differently or something along that line. I am very happy with my results.

Fat transfer results have been hit or miss here on RealSelf so reasearch your surgeon very carefully. Don't only look at before after pictures ask to talk to patients that have had the procedure. Talk to people that have had it done more than a year or so ago so you know the final results.

I am here if you have any questions about my experience with fat transfers.
