You will need lower blephoplasty and cheek lift

Kamran Khoobehi, MD answers: What is recommended to get rid of cheek dents?

I have dents in my cheeks.  I am in my late 30s and it seems pretty early to have blepharoplasty or a cheek lift.

However, I want to minimize or ideally get rid of them because they look awful and make me feel bad.

A facial plastic surgeon friend told me that he didn't recommend fillers since the cheek pads are hard to augment.

Looks like you have fat pockets under your eyes and you have two options

1)filler to camafloge the dent

2) lower blepoplasty ( you will need check lift with this and if you get only fat pocket removal you will have the same issue  down the road)

The cheek lift with lower eyelift is some thing that not all plastic surgeons offer.
