Question:
I am 37 years old, and the only “problem area” I have is my lower cheeks. Is it time for me to have a facelift or would fat grafting be enough?
Answer:
I have not had the opportunity to see you so I am going to make assumptions. You did not identify the problem in your lower cheeks. I will assume that it is loose skin that sags. This is the most common complaint from weight loss or aging. Following weight loss the skin of the cheeks loose fat and thus substance and the skin no longer fits the original package it was intended. In some individuals tissue fillers can be used such as fat grafting, Juvéderm® or Sculptra®.
