Facial Fat Transfer, With Dr. Young, Bellevue & Kirkland

Age brings many excellent qualities to your life and can be a beautiful time as life slows down, and things begin to change.

However, fat transfer to the face is a fantastic alternative for those who want natural, stunning results. At Northwest Face & Body, Dr. Philip Young uses fat transfer to rejuvenate the face and help create a natural contour.
