Final Photos at 1 Year Anniversary of my Facial Fat Transfer
pweDecember 18, 2014
Here is a comparison of my face before surgery and 1 year post surgery. I am still greatly pleased with my results. If you pull the skin on my face, there is noticeably less loose skin, fewer wrinkles more volume in the cheeks and jaw area and less hollowing in the under eyes and near the nose. I feel much younger and prettier!

You look beautiful! Would be nice to think that ALL the fat transfer results would come out so perfectly. Guess it's all the the expertise of the Dr.

Thank you for sharing your story and most of all the pictures. I think that you look wonderful, so natural no one would ever think that you had something done. I did want to ask you, in your review you said that you did not have anything done to your neck, can fat be transfer to the neck or lower face to help with the neck? Again, thank you so much for our story and the update 1 year later!

To the lower face, absolutely. I had fat put into my chin area that made a huge difference in eliminating loose skin. He also put some above my lip and maybe some under the lip. I'm not sure if I kept any of that fat, which is good, because I think I looked funny with different lips! For the neck, in my case, I was told that I would have to do a lower face and neck lift to get rid of the excess skin. I didn't want to have a facelift, so I opted not to do that. I did start using Necktifirm, which is a cream that you rub in. I think it is making a small difference.

pwe, thanks for much for the additional information. You really do look great!

Ive talked to a doctor about this procedure using aquafill to remove fat in one place and put in another but if you have loose neck, that will take something else like neck lift or laser lift. I called dr. D OFFICE AND THEY DIDNT MENTION CENTRIFUGE

This one year post op picture is so helpful as you really look awesome, very natural, clearly it has worked and not reabsorbed back into your face . This is exactly what I'm looking for as I have that "mad look" in repose but I've been told I don't really need a facelift so this would resolve the issue. I didn't see anywhere where you mention if he uses that centrifuge method (spin the fat) I can't find anyone who does this near where I live who does fat transfer and the one's that do, don't have good pictures showing any long term results. Do you remember where exactly he injected the fat as they are very specific about this area or that and naturally, that changes the cost and I'm interested if he put it in the nasial fold area as well as up in the cheek area because I was told that a filler up high lifts the lower area so it is confusing what is really necessary to achieve results.

I believe he did centrifuge the fat, but also remember that since the fat was extracted using water, it was in very good shape to begin with. He did do the nose and a lit of the loose skin was taken up by putting fat in the cheeks. areas.
