I would like to get a fat transfer to my under eyes and cheeks in addition to a microneedling+PRP facial. What is the most effective order of operations? Should I finish the PRP facials first? Should I do the fat transfer in between my first and third facial? Should I do the facial after? I want the fat transfer to take as well as possible and I want my result to look like a fat transfer with a slight lift to the face. I have just turned 35 and I think I don't need a full facelift.

Answer: Fat TRansfer + PRP Hello,I would prefer to add PRP with Fat Transfer treatment. It would improve fat transfer results remarkably. Since fat transfer is subdermal then microneedling doesn't affect fat transfer much. Fat grafting is a process by itself. It requires taking fat tissue from your body and process it then inject it. It is time consuming. I would prefer to focus on the fat transfer process and not to do microneedling at the same time.A successful fat transfer procedure, you would expect more than 80% survival of the grafted tissue after 6 months.Having said that, your physician would explain his/ her preference,.All the BestRay Bayati, MDElite Medical AestheticsSacramento Area, California

Answer: Fat transfer and PRP Facial Thank you for your question. Let me begin by saying that not all fat transfer procedures are the same. I recommend the ALMI fat transfer procedure. This involves micronizing the fat which removes the mature fat cells which will die within 72 hours anyway. The fat can then be injected with a small gauge needle or cannula similar to a dermal filler. PRP will also be injected at the time of the ALMI fat. This helps to lock the fat into place and provides growth factors to stimulate the ALMI fat which is very rich in regenerative stem cells. Best of all you will achieve a natural, long lasting result with minimal or no downtime. As for timing relative to your PRP Facial - I don't think it makes a difference.I hope this was helpful - Dr. Moore.
