Hi - I've not had filler ( apart from under my eyes and a tiny bit in my jawline far bac) for a few years. I recently saw some photographs of me from seven years ago.- I look significantly younger, but I'm not sure why. I can see I have volume loss maybe in my upper cheeks and possibly mid lower lip but would love to hear your professional take on what areas of my face have lost volume and what filler 'fixes' this the best. Weight wise I am 130 pounds. Seven years ago I was 125 so not a huge change. I am 49 yrs old.

Answer: Natural facial rejuvenation The reason your face looks younger from your earlier days is because the face was considerably fuller, even though you may have been at the same weight. Patients who have been at the same way throughout their lifetime benefit the most from having fat grafting done to their face. It does not mean that the fat has to go to your cheek alone, because then you will look almost alien like. The fat has to go almost everywhere: your eye brow, upper eyelids, lower eyelids, temples, forehead, and all that fat needs to be spread out throughout your face and jawline in order to match your younger appearance. When properly done the procedure of facial rejuvenation, using fat grafting produces natural and permanent results. The amount of fat does not have to be large, but it can easily be estimated by a specialist. I hope this helps and good luck from Leonard Grossman, MD, organic Plastic Surgery NYC.
