Fat Grafting: Not Sure - Denver, CO

Why did you go all the way to Utah for this surgery?

Oh, no. Not much in my lower face at all. It was alot and in my cheeks. I looked like a chipmunk for months. I guess it looks ok now, but it's just not precise at this time. They really don't know what it's going to look like. One side could harvest better than another on your cheek's for example and you could have a mismatch. Mine looks ok and added fullness, but I looked really fake for a while. And it didn't help with my lower face - and only hurt. The cheeks are a hard area. You need cheekbones and there just don't seem to be a lot of great options without them except fillers and eventually a facelift. I don't know. I think right now SFG is not good enough.

Georgia 2123 - I was thinking about having a browlift done with Dr. D, and your post made me nervous. Well, I was already nervous. He recommended browlift and chin implant. I am in my 30s. I don't know. I feel like he didn't spend a great deal of time with me regarding the risks of the procedures. He is so nice, it really is hard for me to get past that some time. I want to trust him. But there is just something that I don't like. I can't get a sense of another option for a consult in Atlanta to just get a second opinion. Anyway, your post was actually not bad re him, but he didn't give me half of this information. And now I am nervous.

Could you share your doc's name?
