Should I dissolve fillers and opt for fat grafting during facelift?

November 12, 2024
Asked By:cassandrabrook in New York, New York

If an individual had both significant laxity and volume loss, but had already used dermal filler to address the latter, would it be better to dissolve the filler and do the lift with fat grafting or integrate the filler volume and fat graft later if necessary after natural dissolving of the filler? I am concerned about the unpredictable nature of fat transfer, but also the chance of filler distorting my baseline and causing excessive oedema after a lift.
