Is a full face graft possible for a flat forehead and under eye hollows?

jeherre43Dec 25, 2016
Hello! I am looking for a clinic that does face grafting, it's been 4 months since my eyelid and rhinoplasty, however, I have a flat forehead and my under eyes are hallow an sunken since the surgery, I also have deep laugh lines and I am only 19 years old, but I was under a huge amount of stress since age 14 which maybe caused my skin to age faster? I would like recommendations, I am open to flying in anywhere in the United States, I am in Phoenix, az. Thank you!
