Hi, 
I had a lower bleph a few years ago at 30 when I just wanted to get rid of eyebags, and he went a bit overboard on the left eye and took something away from my face.  There's a nasty scar going outwards for about half an inch, which is made more obvious, especially when the light hits it, as the area below it is slightly depressed. Fat has been taken from the area below the scar (past where any eyebag was) at the top of the cheekbone, which has changed the previously solid look of my cheekbone and the eye to cheek transition on that side. It's only slight, but to me it's very much changed something I was previously happy about in the look of my face and I notice the scar constantly, it being beside my eye. So I'm wondering if fat transfer would be the answer to filling that area back out, and if so whether this could be done without any scarring?
I'm also wondering what can be done about the above eye area that starts to sag. Due to my experience and what I've read of blephs, I don't want to have one as I think that would hollow the area, whereas the whole problem seems to be the hollowing in the first place. Surely it is mainly that the skin is no longer filled out? What I don't like is the dark line caused between the upper eyelid and below brow area by the collapse of the skin above. So I'm wondering if fat transfer could address this area by filling it out very slightly but all over from below the eyebrow downwards and filling out the skin.
Would these ideas be possible, and if so could they be done in one procedure?
Also, I'm thin with a high metabolism, and have read that fat transfer can be a disappointment as it burns off, but that repeated transfer can end up with a good result. How much of the result is left permanently (is there a percentage that's generally permanent?), and how many repeats can be necessary? Are fillers a better option, or perhaps at first to see if the results are what I'm thinking of, and if so, do you do these around the eye area?
Many thanks,
Eyebag
