Sculptra For Cheek Lines
These lines are typically not as successfully relaxed with neuromodulators, as they are due from volume loss in the lateral cheek fat pad. I do use Sculptra commonly to volumize the cheeks, with great success in softening the resulting lines that form along the cheeks. Good luck!

I would highly recommend that you see a board certified facial plastic surgeon for an evaluation and possible treatment. It is difficult to really assess without seeing you in person.

Treatment for lid-cheek transition/nasojugal groove

LINES - LASERS OR BOTOX FAT AND FOUNDATION -FILLERS
You are looking in the wrong direction. Surface lines respond poorly to fillers. The filler just lifts the wrinkle. You usually need something to either quiet the wrinkle (Botox) or iron it out (Lasers usually fractional now) Dr. Mayl Fort Lauderdale
