Best Treatment for 29 Year Old Female with Sad, Volume Depleted Face

Hi Poland, You appear to be an excellent candidate for the addition of volume to your face.  I would treat you with Sculptra.  Good luck and be well. Dr. P

Early facial aging

You don't have great genetics unfortunately and are showing signs of facial aging (jowls, neck laxity, cheek descent) usually reserved for 45+ year olds.  You need a facelift to get the best look but fillers can help in the meantime.

Sad face treatment.

Definitely no fat removal. If anything, fillers would give you more youthful fullness in your face. You have a slight amount of excess skin in your neck and only a necklift will fix that when you are ready. You have early jowling with a depression in front of that that can be handled by fillers or an implant depending on your goals.

Juvederm works for upper cheek fullness.

Hi. You have some atrophy of fat in the upper face. This makes you look gaunt, a little older, and "sad". Restoring upper cheek fullness with skilfully applied fillers will make a big  difference. Fat injections also work, but that's surgery.
