Facelift with Fat Transfer

Facelift techniques, now has never been a better time to schedule a consultation with our Scottsdale Plastic Surgery office. As a cosmetic surgeon, I understand that facial aging involves not only skin laxity and sagging, but deflation and loss of fat in the face. New breakthroughs and technology such as facelifts with fat transfer has led to a more natural and beautiful outcome.

There are many facial procedures that involve fat transfer to adjust proportions of the face. I will go over a few of the more common facelift procedures.

Lip Augmentation

As we age, the fullness in our lips decreases. Through fat transfer, I am able to increase the surface area of the lip. This procedure restores fullness and returns the lips to a more youthful appearance. I use the fat transfer technique to achieve the correct shape and volume. I understand the contours of the lip and enhance it to produce an aesthetically appealing improvement.

Eye Region

Many patients want a healthy and sensual appearance to their eye region, which I deliver by adding fullness to the brow, upper eyelid, and the temple. As we grow older, the fullness of the eye area dissipates and the structure of our skull slowly emerges. Blood vessels are no longer hidden and the muscles become more visible. With my fat transfer technique, I can restore the brow, upper eyelids, and temples to more youthful and healthy proportions.

Chin

Unfortunately, the loss of the fullness in the jawline and chin marks the first signs of aging. The face deflates as the underlying fullness is reduced over time. A chin and jawline lift through fat transfer can substantially reverse the aging process. I can restructure the jaw line and chin, as well as strengthen its appearance. The fat transfer procedure can restore fullness between the chin and the fat of the jowl, and thus alter facial proportion. The end result is a more cleanly sculpted facial profile.

Lower Eyelid & Cheek

Fat transfer can restore fullness to the lower eyelids and cheek, soften wrinkles and crow’s feet, decrease pore size, and lighten lower eyelid darkness. This technique can also be useful for masking noticeable silicone cheek implants, diminishing the appearance of bulging eyes, and improvement of facial deformities.

If you’re like most people who have one or all of these procedures, you’ll be very pleased with your new refreshed, alert appearance. Patients often tell me that they never realized how much their sagging chin or eyes contributed to the signs of aging, until they see how much younger and more rested they appear after the surgery and healing.
