Can losing body fat due to excessing working out and dieting cause sunken cheeks? If so, can it be somewhat reversed by putting weight back on? best methods? Or is Juvederm or another filler the only option? thanks
Answer: Sunken eyes and cheeks Sunken eyes and cheeks can be a side effect of heavy exercise and as such lower body fat. This can be improved by application of facial fillers or fat grafting. We have found sculptura and Voluma to be our two products of choice. Sculptura functions by stimulation of new collagen formation and it can last up to two years. Voluma is an immediate filler which can last close to two years. Both can result in very natural yet augmented looks.

CONTACT NOW Answer: Best treatments to address loss of volume in the midface Thank you for your question. There are options in treating loss of volume in the midface. Injectable fillers are likely the quickest, with fast treatments that produce nearly instant results. You should enjoy your improvement for many months - possibly up to two years for some patients. The next option would be a collagen stimulator like Sculptra, which is injected deep into the dermal tissue to trigger the body to produce more collagen. As collagen levels rise, the midface becomes fuller. Results take up to six months to fully develop, but are extremely natural and can last up to two years. The final option would be facial fat grafting - where we remove excess fat from an area of the body like the abdomen and inject it into the face. This tends to produce the most durable result, but it can also be the most unpredictable. This procedure should only be performed by an experienced, board-certified facial plastic surgeon to ensure the best possible result. Fillers and Sculptra can be safely and successfully injected by an experienced, board-certified injector.

Answer: Fillers are a good way to combat volume loss in cheeks If you have lost volume in your face due to weight loss, there are options available to help you restore fullness. Some of the most popular ways to regain lost volume in the cheeks are dermal fillers such as Voluma or Sculptra. Voluma is a hyaluronic acid gel filler that adds immediate volume, while Sculptra works to stimulate collagen production in your skin, leading to long-lasting results. Fat transfer is another viable option. I recommend having an in-person consultation and evaluation with a board-certified, experienced plastic surgeon to come up with a good treatment plan.
