Solution for Gaunt Face? Filler, Fat Grafting. (photos)

October 23, 2015
Asked By:heathernm in Florida, FL

Prior to fat-grafting, I'd like to try a reversible filler first. My face is extremely gaunt - particularly around my mouth, below my cheekbones, & my temples. I'm 48 and have been the same weight for about 10 years but every year my face gets thinner. I'd hoping for advice on 1) what areas of my face should be the first focus (temples, below eyes, mouth, etc), 2) what particular fillers (reversible) are best, and 3) whether fat grafting will be appropriate for these areas in the future.
