There is no exact answer as to which is better for facial fillers, hyaluronic acid or autologous fat, as the suitable filler varies depending on the individual’s physique and needs.
Hyaluronic acid facial filler produces less trauma and is slightly less safe than fat filler. Hyaluronic acid filler lasts for a shorter period of time, usually about half a year. While autologous fat filling is relatively more damaging to the body, the recovery period is long, the filling effect, tear trough and eyelid groove can not be realized, but the maintenance time is longer, usually maintain about three years. Therefore, there is no accurate answer to which one is better, hyaluronic acid or autologous fat, and it needs to be viewed according to the patient’s needs.
Hyaluronic acid filler and autologous fat filler are both invasive treatments, so after filling, patients are advised to take good care of the wound area, avoiding water or rubbing the affected area to prevent wound infection.
