I was born with a relatively "peanut face", but it is getting worse with age and my temples feel more and more sunken in. I want to stay away from fillers and Sculptra because they are too pricey for results that are not long term. If I wanted to get a fat graft, can someone give me a rough approximation of how much it will cost, and if I'm a good candidate? Other suggestions are appreciated

Answer: Filler Facial fat transfer, also known as facial fat grafting or lipoinjection, is a cosmetic procedure that involves injecting fat into the face to restore volume and improve the appearance of the skin: How it worksFat is extracted from another part of the body, usually the abdomen, thighs, or buttocks, using liposuction. The fat is then purified and injected into areas of the face that need volume, such as the cheeks, under the eyes, or around the lips. BenefitsFacial fat transfer can help to: Fill in sunken cheeks and the eye area Reduce the appearance of line folds and scars Enhance lip size Improve overall skin quality AlternativesFacial fat transfer can be an alternative to a more invasive facelift. It can also be combined with other treatments, such as dermal fillers or Botox, to create a more sculpted look. RecoveryAfter the procedure, patients can expect 7–10 days of swelling and some mild bruising. PermanenceWhile facial fat transfer is considered a permanent intervention, only about 60% of the injected fat is retained.
