I am looking for a permanent natural solution and am looking to get cheek and lip fat grafting done. I have a slightly long face that lacks cheek fat and cheekbones. If with fat grafting, I add fat: 1. to the sides of my face (laterally) to increase the width of my face 2. to the cheekbone area to make my face look overall fuller 3. to my lips to make my long chin look smaller would my face become more heart-shaped face? I'm aware I need face-to-face consultation. Thanks!
Answer: Fat Grafting vs. Dermal Fillers While fat grafting does offer longer-lasting results than dermal fillers, the outcome is also less predictable with fat. In addition, if you don’t like your results, there is no way to reverse fat grafting. I would suggest starting out with some well-placed filler to enhance your facial contour and bring your features into better proportion. The procedure is quick and relatively painless, and there is no downtime afterward. Depending on the filler used, your improvement could last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years. Make sure you choose an experienced, board-certified dermatologist for this procedure to ensure an optimal outcome.

Answer: Permanent augmentation for cheeks and lips While fat grafting can be used for facial contouring, some patients begin with dermal fillers to make sure they like the result before moving forward with more permanent fat grafting. Either could be used in the cheekbones to add definition, or along the jawline to create more of a heart shape to the face. No matter which treatment you choose, make sure you work with an experienced, board-certified facial plastic surgeon to ensure the best possible outcome.

Answer: Fillers for facial shape Hello and thanks for your question. Fillers are a great way to reshape the face- my suggestion would be to possible start with HA based filler before considering fat transfer to see how this works for you. There is also the option of using non surgical devices to reshape the face and to help lift and tighten. You would be best seeking a face to face consult. Best wishes
