Fat Apoptosis Injection Therapy for Infraorbital Herniated Fat Pads
In this small case series with short-term follow-up, FA injection therapy was feasible and well tolerated and was associated with visible short-term improvement in infraorbital contour. These findings are hypothesis-generating; larger controlled studies with validated outcome instruments (eg, FACE-Q) and longer safety follow-up are required before definitive conclusions regarding efficacy, durability, and late complications can be drawn.
