Both of those options can help. I think Restylane would be a better alternative to replace the volume that you have lost in the lower eyelid and cheek area. That is essentially what has happened — a loss of volume. The only thing is that restylane will last only 6-9 months. Fat repositioning can help the condition but there are limitations. It can leave you looking hollow and it can impact the position of your eyelids and can have complications.

I don’t prefer the fat repositioning procedure. I think volumizing the area is the best way to rejuvenate the face and the lower eyelid area. It can give you the most naturally looking results.  Fat transfer to this area is the best if done right.

I refined an amazing volumizing procedure called “the YoungLift”.  This is an innovative technique that volumizes your face to bring out the younger and natural you without looking like you had something done.  This is not a facelift and requires no incisions.  Only pinpoint puncture sites are used and these heal imperceptibly.  The YoungLift can be done without general anesthesia and without drains, and large bandages.  You also have a lot less downtime and discomfort compared with traditional facelift procedures.  Dr Young employs the very best techniques from around the world into one volumizing procedure and he uses his internationally acclaimed understanding of facial beauty to create the youthful volume you once had. The YoungLift techniques can help with filling up the lips as well.  You can great results with fat injections in the lips.

Dr Young is located in Bellevue near Seattle, Washington
