I want to know what my options are for raising my cheeks without adding any volume. I lost all my babyfat in my twenties and love the new slim look of my face, however, my cheeks have drooped a bit so now I have lines next to my nose and next to my mouth. What can I do to rid myself of these? I've tried fillers before and the results made me look like a chipmunk and didn't chsnge much.

Answer: Facial rejuvenatio for a 27 year old It is difficult to make a comment or diagnose without a picture or examination. In general, best option for facial rejuvenation for a 27 year old with facial skin laxity and lack of volume is fillers in combination with skin tightening lasers. Facelift is not recommended.

Answer: How do you get that young look to your face again? As many other mentioned, its always difficult to suggest much without really having pictures. However, I will speak in general terms and hopefully it will give you some information you can look up and inquire about. For one, its very uncommon (and I mean VERY) for a 27 year old to 'require' a facelift. Obviously, noone requires one but people want one. For a person in their 20's, there are much safer and often better options. 1. Fillers - Obviously, this is the first choice. The issue with fillers is that it is highly dependent on the skill of the injector. I would think that, based on your description, you should be getting excellent results without looking abnormal. I would consider this my first choice. 2. Radiofrequency Skin Tightening - This is a method that can be used to tighten the skin. Its very effective in young people and no downtime. This is another option to help tighten and lift some saggins or loose skin. I'd look into those options and you may be surprised, Dr James P.
