Procedure Details

This patient was looking to restore her look without undergoing a facelift. The patient was interested in filling her cheeks and increasing the projection of her cheekbones. Using the patient's own fat her facial shape was improved to create a more youthful appearance.

The Heart Shaped Face

A feminine face is often associated with a heart shape where the cheeks are wide and the chin is narrow. In aging the cheeks become more hollow making the face look longer and more boxy in appearance. VOlumetric restoration of youthfullness begins by looking at the proportions of the cheeks to the height and width of the the face. With fat grafting the face can be reshaped. Fat is a safe, long lasting filler that has a natural appearance.
