Loss of skin elasticity due to the breakdown of collagen fibers and sun damage is responsible for the aging of the skin envelope, clinically manifested by wrinkles, folds, and pigment changes. A second category of aging is tissue sagging, caused by the laxity of the tissues underlying the skin and the yielding of the ligaments that hold tissue planes together under the weight of gravity.<\/p><p>The third component of aging is facial hollowing due to the loss of volume in the superficial and deep fat compartments. For decades, surgeons were accustomed to addressing the first two components of aging through skin resurfacing procedures and traditional surgical lifts of the face, cheeks, and neck while neglecting facial atrophy. Eventually, less-than-ideal results lead them to turn their attention to volume restoration and to appreciate the importance of fat grafting as the best option to address it.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-d826ec8 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"d826ec8\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;gradient&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-extended\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-c4b4c43\" data-id=\"c4b4c43\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c280bca textcenter elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"c280bca\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Why add fat to an aging face?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-64d477d elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"64d477d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5ea1f1a elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"5ea1f1a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Fat transfer offers many advantages over dermal fillers as a means of volumetric rejuvenation.

Finally, the surgeon infiltrates the fat into the facial fat compartments according to the degree of volume depletion and before beginning any other surgical procedures.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-c6a83b3 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"c6a83b3\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-extended\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-705dde6 elementor-invisible\" data-id=\"705dde6\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\" data-settings=\"{&quot;animation&quot;:&quot;fadeIn&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-403fa7e textcenter elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"403fa7e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Who is a good candidate for facial fat grafting?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9caf035 elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"9caf035\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-dbfa591 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"dbfa591\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-extended\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-9e410ac elementor-invisible\" data-id=\"9e410ac\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\" data-settings=\"{&quot;animation&quot;:&quot;fadeIn&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2de48fd elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"2de48fd\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The best candidates for this procedure are healthy individuals who present with facial volume loss, manifested by low eyebrows, wrinkles under the eyes, and saggy cheeks, and who desire a significant and sustained improvement in facial appearance.<\/p><p>Fat transfer may be performed as a single procedure in younger patients who require subtle volumetric rejuvenation.
