Posted under Cheek Fillers q&a

Do I have a long midface or is my lack of cheek fat making it look longer? What can be done about it? (photo)

Hello, I measured my facial thirds and they all seem to be roughly equal however in photos my midface seems to look a bit long. I have very little cheek fat and my midface is a bit flat, could this be a reason why it seems longer than it is? Will cheek filler be able to correct this? Does adding contour via cheek filler make the midface look shorter? How would I know whether my midface (bone structure) is actually long or it just looks long due to lack of cheek volume? Thanks!
