What are additional procedures I can get with a lower face and neck lift? Female, 56. Also, is Fat Transfer for volume loss a good idea? I am scheduled to get a facelift but I am not sure if I should also proceed with a fat transfer treatment.

Answer: Fat Transfer with Facelift Hello, hope you are well. Generally speaking, fat grafting (lipotransfer) is commonly performed alongside facelift surgery. Usually when I perform fat grafting in this context it is for volume loss around the eyes and upper cheeks, and sometimes the nasolabial folds. But by no means is it appropriate for everyone. Without photos and an understanding of your facial anatomy, it's impossible to say whether it would be a good idea for you. Best,Dr. Tower

Answer: Facelift and neck lift are the gold standard for facial rejuvenation. While facelift and neck lift are the gold standard for facial rejuvenation, volume loss also can add to an aged appearance. Fat grafting has been used to try to restore volume loss in the face. It’s important to understand that 100% of the fat, which is transferred to your face does not survive. The amount that does survive is dependent upon multiple factors. Have a detailed discussion about this with your plastic surgeon.
