Fat Grafting on Lower Eyelids and Rhinoplasty at the Same Time?

December 13, 2009
Asked By:CaseyDrew in Sweden

Is it possible to do neoplasty (rhinoplasty) surgery and Fat grafting to the lower eyelids at the same time?I've heard that your eyelids get swollen during and after the nose job. Wouldn't this affect the amount of successful fat cells transferred to the eyelid?Also, if I lose 20 lbs after the surgery, will that affect the amount of fat in the eyelids?
