Would I benefit from fat grafts to the lower eye after fat repositioning failed? (photos)

September 16, 2024
Asked By:NYCbee in Los Angeles, California

Eye bags previously treated twice using fillers with mixed results/reaction to the filler. Had a lower bleph in Nov '23, fat grafting requested for volume loss but surgeon wanted to avoid due to known risk. Fat repositioning had low survival rate and did not create a smooth result, so fillers were attempted again/severe reaction again. Now surgeon suggesting I return to dissolve then do the fat grafting. if repositioning failed, would grafting have any better chance? any other options?
