I am looking for a permanent solution to filler i got on my upper cheekbones. Naturally my cheekbones do not show at all and are very flat and I like the look of high cheekbones. A doctor mentioned fat transfer or grafting to this area is a permanent solution that will give the same structural look, but another said it won't create the same bone like effect. I also want something that would stick long term and not suddenly droop all the way down my face. Any other permanent solutions to this?
