Filler or fat transfer to upper eyelid?

December 7, 2017
Asked By:creamy77 in New York, NY

My upper eyelid started to sank due to volume loss. (Double eyelid looking triple )I am not sure if I should do fat transfer or filler. Fat transfer sounds great since it's almost permanent. But I also can't predict how my eye gonna age with it. By looking at my mom who is early 50's. Her upper eye is droopy, and I assume having fat on that area cause more sag in future? On the other hand, filler seems great. But I have to keep injecting all my life and also it's not my own tissue.
