I had no idea that "fat" could do so much. I only knew I no longer had any on my face and I looked unhealthy, unattractive. I really thought my only recourse was a facelift. I had f/g along with plasma resurfacing, Botox and conservative lip augmentation. I am one year out, as they say. I look fantastic, if I do say so! Sorry, but I'll throw modesty out the window and speak frankly. I look 10 times better than I did before adding precious fat to my face. I recommend anyone experiencing volume loss just forget about temporary fillers and go for fat. Choose your doctor wisely--go with someone who makes this a specialty, someone with copious experience.

To Southern Cal Fan: Do you mind if I speak with you personally about your experience with Dr L? I had a consult with him and would love to talk with an actual patient.

Hi Snuggly-thanks for your polite question. My fault-I wrote all about this f/g (all over) and since then, have been inundated with questions. I'm kind of tired, lol. (I should have known-now I do! We all want as much firsthand info as possible.) Best wishes whatever you do; I like the f/g, the doctor. Fin :)

Is there anything at all that you regret?

No, I have no regrets about the f/g. He's a great doctor and one of the best at this procedure, certainly.

SouthernCal, I'm thinking about going to see Dr. L. Do you mind telling me how long ago you had the procedure and if you are still showing results? Thanks, D.

July 07 full f/g. Definitely still seeing the result. Aging continues, of course, but the fat's still there and it has helped.
