Fig. 4. — Fat grafting alone. Preoperative (A) and postoperative (B) lateral views of a 33-year-old white woman who underwent autologous fat grafting of the face. The preoperative photograph demonstrates flattening of the lower forehead with an open nasofrontal angle and an appropriately rotated nasal tip. The postoperative photograph, obtained 1.6 years following the procedure, shows improvement in forehead contour. The patient received 3 cm³ of fat in the nasofrontal region only. Note reduction in the nasofrontal angle (from 134.3° preoperatively to 130.5° postoperatively) and no change in tip rotation.
