If it is possible to add fat to the forehead, which technique would you recommend and what are the possible complications? Thank you.
Answer: Fat Transfer
Yes, it is possible, but we prefer Botox and/or Juvederm. Juvederm is very predictable, and easy to use. A fat transfer is also a possibility, but not my first choice. Fat is harder to get into areas a filler like Juvederm can easily get into. Juvederm is also much cheaper for the patient.

Answer: Fat Transfer to Forehead typically is done in Temple Area. Botox and Fillers used for Forehead Lines
Fat Transfer or Fat Grafting can be done in the forehead. Typically Fat Transfer is done in the Temple Area because fullness in the Temple or side of the Forehad creates a youthful appearance.
If your concern is deep Forehead lines such as Frown Lines and Worry Lines, Botox or Dysport are more effective solutions. Fillers such as Restylane, Pearlane, Juvederm, Sculptra and others can be used to plump forehead lines, but without Botox or Dysport to quiet the muscles causing these lines, the results of Fillers are usually disappointing.
If you have a contour deformity or wish to have a more prominent forehead then Fat Transfer or Fat Grafting would be a solution, however I would have fillers first to see if you like the result.

The technique used in the Younvolumizer, fat is transferred in a specific way that accentuates youthfulness and beauty; overall fat transfers can be very beneficial in the forehead area.

Answer: Fat Transfer to the Forehead
Fat can be used in the forehead to soften the area or to camauflage prominent veins. I usually do this at the time of a facelift rather than by it self. It does require removal of fat by liposuction from another area, usually the abdomen, processing the fat to remove fluid and reinjection in very small droplets. It would be important to know what you were hoping to accomplish with the fat grafting in order to tell you if it is a good idea in your particular circumstances.
