I had fat grafting 7months ago then I did ultherapy 3 months ago , the ultherapy has melted some of the fat , my face are sagging and fat has stretched my cheeks, (cheeks are wide) but the ultherapy has melted down the fat , is looks flat the midface Am I candidate for face or neck lift? Or simply putting the fat back will lift the face ?the fat will make my face wider ? Skin are stretched, lost the elasticity, will fat regenerate the skin?

Answer: Problems After Fat Grafting and Ultherapy Honestly, I don't see much "sagging" of skin that would warrant a facelift. There is noticeable asymmetry with your right upper cheek flatter than the left.. This could be due to a combination of some normal fat loss following grafting and also the effect of the ultherapy heat on the fat. Regardless of the cause, my opinion is that correcting the asymmetry will help you best, and careful addition of volume in the right cheek will help. But first, I think you should discuss very specifically with your surgeon just what your problems and goals are. What type of shape are you hoping for. Adding fat volume will fill out the flattened area on right cheek, but that will widen your upper face slightly. Perhaps removing buccal fat in the lower cheek will create a more heart shaped face, which is a youthful look.

Answer: Facelift I’m not surprised that filllers and ultherary were useless. To me you appear too young for a facelift or any other surgery on your face
