Rhinoplasty with Fat Grafting*

This patient was seeking an improvement in the appearance of her nose. She was unhappy with her profile in particular. It was noted on her examination that she had very deep set eyes which were making the nose seem bigger than it was, and it gave the patient a tired look. Fat grafting in the cheeks and under the eyes was suggested to improve the overall balance to her face. While she did not originally request this, after showing the patient the proposed fat grafting on the Vectra System she had a better understanding of what was being proposed. The fat grafting procedure took a small amount of fat from her waist. Approximately 7 cc's were used under each eye.
