I’ve just turned 40 and I’m looking at facial rejuvenation I’ve consulted a significant number of credible surgeons and almost every one has stated something different. I do havé mild laxity on my cheek around my nose and I want that addressing and same with upper lip. However I’m wondering if fat graft to fill face with eye lid would be sufficient? Does an endoscopic temporal and mid face lift sound too much? Fat graft alone a good result? Opinions!

Answer: Facial rejuvenation - lift or fat graft? Hello @Imperfect83, thank you for your question. From what you can see in the photos it is possible to fill in the nasolabial folds. As for this case, Hyaluronic Acid works best due to the fact that it can be reabsorbed and can be handled better than fat. Fat tends to be more volatile since asymmetry can occur if seeding does not attach or migrate evenly. In the case of the eyes is not posible to see the eyes expression to make an informed recommendation, more information is needed. Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez MD, FACS.
