Juvederm for Narrow Face with Sunken Cheeks and Deep Nasolabial Folds?

Juvederm and Restylane are great fillers for correcting wrinkles and creases as well as for lip augmentation.  However, cheek augmentation is usually best performed using Sculptra or fat transfers due to the volumes that are needed to correct these larger defects.  These latter two also last longer and can be used to volumize other areas of the face like the temporal areas as well as provide overall volumization of the face.
