i am 50 and considering doing a bit of neck and jowls and readjusting my cheek pads ? fat transfer I did a little last year and only lasted about 3 months? is this normal?
Answer: Mini-Facelift and Fat Transfer A mini facelift will help the neck and jowls and can be done with small incisions. Fat transfer to the cheek pads can be very helpful in giving you several years of corrective fulness. Fat grafting done in a precise manner using specialized mainstream techniques can be extremely effective in correcting flattened cheek pads in the malar area.

The first is laxity of skin and muscle which the facelift corrects. The next is a volume which the fat improves when needed. Finally, the surface of the skin should be evaluated for texture Color

Answer: Fat transfer and mini facelift Fat transfer is not required at the time of a mini facelift. Your experience with early reabsorption of your transferred fat is not uncommon. It is possible that if you have a fat transfer repeated that your experience will be similar. I hope this information is helpful for you.Stephen Weber MD, FACSDenver Facial Plastic Surgeon

Answer: Addressing different parts of aging As our face ages we lose volume, tissues descend with gravity, and our skin accrues photodamage in the form of pigment, fine wrinkles, blood vessels, etc. Volumizing with fillers and fat is aimed at the loss of volume, whereas lifts are really just redistributing tissues back up to where they used to be. You can do them at the same time, you can do them separately, it doesn't matter, but it's likely you can benefit from both (and addressing your skin aging) since all those three facets of aging tend to happen together.

Answer: Mini Lift No, you do not need to do fat transfer as part of a mini lift. It is advised when you have a paucity of soft tissue so it can complement the final result. Fat take can be a bit unpredictable, and a patient may become undercorrected in few months. This is due to variablity in resoprtion in different individuals. Frequently, with one touch up the one can achieve a good result. Best wishes!
