Answer: Would be better If you have that chance, It would be better to reposition the soft tissues during the operation and give the volume back with fat grafting at the same time. The fillers can be melted in a couple of hours, so that is also possible to do it one day before the surgery.

Answer: Cheek filler before facelift It is much better to have the filler remoced before a facelift as it makes thet tissue planes more normal and easier for the surgeon to work in . In addition fillers can cause significant lymphatic obstruction and so this means that patients experience more post facelift surgeyr swelling

Answer: Cheek filler and facelifts I don't believe it is necessary to remove the cheek filler before facelift surgery. Many surgeons including myself will recommend fat grafting or cheek implants as part of the facelift surgery. Facelift surgery includes restoration of lost volume and sagging. Discuss these considerations with your surgeon.
