I Have High Cheek Bones but Underneath Them is Hollow What's the Best Treatment?

This depends on wheteher you're a man or a woman as aesthetically the cheek shape differs in each. High cheek bones in a man is an angular trait and as such aesthetically appropriate. If you have an indentation below the cheeks, in this scenario, Sculptra or Perlane would fill in that area making it flush with the surrounding tissues, of the face. However, if you're a woman, high cheek bones once again add abgularity to the face making it appear elongated... more

Hollow Cheeks

The loss of soft tissue volume with aging occurs in a predictable pattern in most patients. Most people experience some deflation of the cheek fat pad in their thirties, and lip volume may also begin to thin around this time. Nasolabial folds begin to deepen.

Cheek implants for permanent cheek hollow filling.

While filliing your hollow area with fillers or better yet fat might work well you can also go with submalar implants.

The other options would be sculptra which is injected in a few sessions and could last up to 2 years and finally I would consider fat transfer, injecting your own fat into the area. These options would soften your cheek line up. more

Best Treatment for Hollow Cheeks

Cheek implants are permanent but longer lasting fillers such as Radiesse have many advantages over implants. One obvious advantage is that surgery is not required. Another is that you can get either a rapid or a gradual correction depending upon how many syringes you have injected and you can decide as you go exactly how much correction looks good. Also, as your face ages it changes over the years. Touch up treatments are constantly being modified to fit the changing face. more
