Does Dr. Lam perform facial fat grafting differently for men?
Absolutely, Dr. Lam performs a very customized plan of fat grafting in every case. In men, the anterior cheek should not be overly enhanced otherwise the face can be feminized. Conversely, the lateral cheek can be a more masculine feature to be subtly enhanced. The lateral (outer) jawline can also be a region to enhance to arrive at a more masculine or youthful jawline. Dr. Lam tailors his approach for every patient. Generally, Dr. Lam is more conservative with volumes in the male face depending on one’s age. Again, using old photographs can be the definitive guide in communicating what facial shape is the most desirable.
