Fillers or Fat Transfer Pros and Cons

November 2, 2010
Asked By:FSRB

Which method is the safest and easiest to manipulate? I am not ready for a facelift (mid 40s) but would like the same effect. I have a pretty think face. I need volume in cheeks and temples. Maybe under the eyes but I understand this is difficult. I like the idea of fat transfer because it a natural filler as I am worried about the rejection rate of fillers.
