This can cause a sunken appearance of the cheeks and a tired, look underneath the eyes. As the face loses volume, nasolabial folds (laugh lines), marionette lines (vertical lines extending from the corners of your mouth down to your chin), and bags under the eyes may become more visible. The best way to reduce the signs of aging is not only to correct loose neck and face skin, but to remove fat from other areas of your body and transfer it to your face to replace the lost fat volume from the aging process. This will restore the youthful appearance to your face.

The results of a fat transfer to the face can create a natural look if done by a skilled Plastic Surgeon, such as Dr. Millicent Geers. Poorly done fat transfer to the face can leave you looking bloated and unnatural. This often occurs when the patient wants all wrinkles eliminated by overfilling the face. This is not a good look. Fat transfer is meant to make you look fresh, not freakish. Fat is removed from a donor site such as the belly, love handles, waist, inner thighs or knees. This harvested fat is then injected into the designated area of your face.

It is important to find an experienced Plastic Surgeon, like Dr. Geers at Flying Horse Medical Center, to perform your fat transfer to the face. Dr. Geers specializes in natural results. Natural-looking transformations keep in line with her Cosmetic Plastic Surgery motto, “Look lucky, not done.”
