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

We have done a lot of eye bag treatments with fat grafting, as long as your doctor knows exactly how to work with it, you shouldn't have any problem, in fact as it's your own material is really rare to see a reaction to it. I cannot see your full face but it could be also be increase due to the volume loss on your cheeks. In my experience, treating this area you have really big improvements in facial, and specially eyes area, rejuvenation.

Midface volume restoration can be done a number of ways.
Surgeons have done this using fillers, fat grafting, using implants or a midface lift.
I’m not sure what your issue was with the fillers and fillers is probably the gold standard for this kind of work.
That said not, everybody has the same degree of skill when it comes to midface volume enhancement using fillers.
Consider looking at the website of Dr. David Mabrie MD in San Francisco.
Real self does not allow me to include a website link so you’ll have to look up his website.
David is a facial plastic surgeon whose career is focused exclusively on facial volume restoration using fillers.
His work is the best I’ve ever seen.
I’m not suggesting everybody fly to San Francisco to get fillers.
Seeing his results can be a powerful educational tool to understand what fillers can accomplish in the hands of the right provider.
Facial fat transfer is by its very nature, potentially imprecise, unpredictable, and potentially unforgiving if patients don’t like the outcome.
You can’t just reverse facial fat grafting.
It is an especially difficult in areas that have insufficient host tissue to support the grafted fat.

Especially around the eyes.
I generally do not recommend fat crafting in this area unless your provider has extensive experience with a proven track record.
Always ask providers to open up their portfolio and show you their entire collection of before and after pictures of previous patients with similar facial characteristics for any proposed treatment.
Perhaps you should be looking for another provider.
This kind of work is tricky and provider selection is in the end, sometimes the most important variable.
A midface lift may also be very helpful, but the procedure is pretty involved and has a potentially prolonged recovery time with facial swelling.
The procedure was more popular 20 years ago.
With the development of high-quality fillers, the procedure has taken somewhat of a backseat, but still has its place especially when done correctly.
