Abstract

The accumulation of subcutaneous fat that occurs with age in certain areas of the face, ie, heavy melolabial folds, prominent jowl formation, and accumulation of fat under the chin, can make a person look older than he or she is. Removal of fat from these areas by microliposuction can enhance and rejuvenate the aging face. Similarly, fat loss in certain facial areas due to aging can result in hollow cheeks and deep grooves in the face. Its replacement through autologous fat transplantation can also rejuvenate the aging face, giving it a less angular, more rounded appearance.
