Fat transfer instead of orbital rim implants?

(1/5) > >>

Lestat:
Unfortunately implants will erode your bone over time.

I think fat transfer is the better option. (See b&a picture attached).

What do you guys think?

A-V-P:
Great pictures.
I'm not an expert, but my experience is that fat does not stay.
It's a long strange story... But a doctor drilled my upper nose very narrow last summer.
Then he replaces the structure he took out with fat.
The fat is gone now and nose feels like skin and bones and much weaker than before.

But I guess there are different areas where the fat can stay better.

How long after are these pictures taken at?

Lestat:
Maybe because your fat grafts didn't "survive".

The survival of the fat will depend upon surgeons skills and will be the result of how the fat was harvested, how it was purified, and how and where it was injected.
When done successfully, the injected fat grows a new blood supply and begins to receive the nourishment it needs to survive from your body. When this happens, results can and often are permanent. However there can be a percentage of fat that does not take and this is why touch-ups are sometimes necessary.

The after photos were taken 18 months post op.

A-V-P:
Looks very good.
Good to hear that there are such good results.

It was done by Coleman, the number one expert when it comes to fat transfers.
