Facial fat transfer revision (upper face)

Question

I am 6 months post op from fat transfer. My surgeon put fat into my scalp, forehead, brows and so much into my temples. The result Is drooping of my skin in my upper face that I never had.The surgeon will not help me. I have commenced Morpheus 8 treatment for fat reduction, I can see it has some affect. Some areas such as forehead and scalp have not responded as well. How can I remove fat in these areas? What can I do for skin tightening?

Without the benefit of evaluating your photos it's difficult to give you a detailed treatment plan, but it's definitely possible to improve the appearance of the areas affected by the fat grafting. Typically it's difficult to remove completely the previously placed fat, but it usually is possible to improve the contour of it so that it looks more natural. Morpheus8 is a reasonable first step, and other skin tightening modalities may be considered such as OligioX or Ulthera in addition.
