I got buccal fat removal a year ago but my face didn't change because there was no fat in my face. I think my zygomatic bones are the problem. They are wide but not projected, so my cheeks can't be hollow. So I went to more experienced surgeon and he said that he can do fat graft to zygos so it can make hollow cheeks look. All I want a sunken cheeks like a model and I will do everything I can to achieve this. He said that fat graft is like fillers but permanent but I am not sure about it. Can it make cheekbones more prominent and create hollow cheeks? Please note that I am a bruxism victim.
Im only 25, and there is a drastic loss of volume in 1 of my cheeks most likely caused by sleeping on that side extensively. Within the past week and a half it seems to have gotten more noticeable and there is even slight pain there from time to time. Realistically, what are my options as a 25 year old to treat this? I'm not interested in getting into dermal fillers where I have to return once or twice every year, is fat grafting the solution for me?
I'm 42, 100lbs. I have deep nasolabial folds these photos don't do justice, and flat cheeks. The whole lower part of my face is saggy, though I don't have much as jowls go. Will facial fat transfer greatly improve these issues? Is an smas facelift too much at this point?
I am unsure how specialised facial fat grafting is and if it is worth going to a very expensive facial surgeon for this. I am also looking at a surgeon much cheaper but mostly does body fat transfer, however he does fat surgeries more frequently and has a good retention rate with his patients. I have been told not to waste lots of money on this as I'll need to do multiple rounds. Considering I am just looking for the apple of my cheeks and nasolabial folds to be addressed is very highly complex? I have seen friends go to the best of the best and have the fat dissolve in a few months anyway and I don't want to waste money. At the same time, I don't want complications. I'd appreciate thoughts from surgeons who do fat transfer on both face and body.
