I had fat transferred to my cheeks about a year and half ago.

Question:
I had fat transferred to my cheeks about a year and half ago.  I have noticed that my cheeks now seem to be sagging a bit.  Is this common?  What treatments / procedures are available to treat this?

Answer:
It is possible that some of the fat that was transferred to your face has dissolved and that is why your cheeks and face appear to be sagging.  I would suggest having your surgeon evaluate your face, but, it is very possible and quite common for a touch up fat transplantation procedure may need to be performed.
