Hello, I've always felt as if I look much older than I really am. Something about my face just always feels off to me, and I'm not sure I can pinpoint what it is. I know I'd benefit greatly from rhinoplasty, but the upfront cost of that is a bit prohibitive at the moment so I'm wondering if there are any fillers or other nonsurgerical procedures that may help bring a more balanced and younger look. I'm considering very subtle lip fillers as well.

Answer: Facial Balance Hi baileyb, thanks for your question. Looking at your photos, I see some areas where enhancement with injectables would help give you more facial balance. Adding filler to the middle of your chin would help give it some projection, giving more facial balance from a profile/side view. Also, the anterior/frontal aspect of your cheeks are deficient in volume, which can make the nose appear larger. Adding slight volume to this region will give an illusion of the nose being slimmer. Placement and technique of fillers is key to getting a balanced result, so make sure to find an experienced injector. All the best,Michelle Giglio, PA-C, MMS

Answer: Balancing out the face In the pictures you have submitted, I see absolutely nothing wrong. But then again, it would be helpful. If you pulled your hair up and submitted at least two or three photographs of your face from straight on, oblique view, as well as one side view. That will provide us with a lot more information and the ability to give you advice. I hope this helps and good luck from New York City Plastic Surgery.
