Cheek Augmentation: Q&A

Mid 20's Facial Deflation and Cheek Descent - What Are My Options?
When people look at me they constantly push up on their cheeks. It is very frustrating. I have premature aging, it is unlike most people my age. I have the fat loss (thin gaunt face) and my upper cheek seems to have descended a little causing a slight lower lid retraction. People say when I smile I look so much better (my cheeks rise up). Even my lower lids rise a little too. What is my best option? Cheek lift with implants? Fat transfer? I'd like to get a rhinoplasty can I combine procedures?
