Facial fat transfer (FAMI) vs cheeklift + blepharoplasty - or both? (Photo)

Polite960691Nov 26, 2024
I am researching options to restore lost volume in the midface area. So far I have had different recommendations, where one doctor suggests a full face FAMI fat grafting, and another - a combination of cheeklift and lower blepharoplasty (that could be combined with facial fat graft for enhanced result). I'm 44, looking for a natural effect, accumulated over time, rather than a drastic change. My skin tonus is pretty good, with good elasticity and mild sagging, mostly in the midface area.
