One thing I strongly dislike is a depression / sort of hollowness that shows up in my cheeks when I smile - mainly on the left side of the face. Is this a muscular issue that occurs when I smile or is it because my cheeks are too flat? What would be my best option to correct this? Also, am I a candidate for a conservative rhinoplasty to refine my nose tip and narrow the bridge? Could I also benefit from a conservative eyelid surgery to open my eyes more? I would like to be more attractive.

Answer: Cheek depression Hi. You are very pretty. I certainly don't think you need a rhinoplasty. Or a blepharoplasty, for that matter.If you want to add a little fullness to the cheek area, which should help to reduce the little depression in the cheek you see when smiling, a filler like Voluma would be a good bet. Botox or other neuromodulators would not be the correct choice.All the best.

Answer: Is it Botox or Filler for the cheek depression? Thank you so much for this question. I do believe you will be better served by a filler injection. I do see the depression in the cheek region and adding volume with a variety of dermal fillers is the most likely treatment recommended for this kind of issue. You should consider Restylane Silk or Voluma and you should discuss your goals with an experienced injector. As far as the questions with your nose, unfortunately, the photos are not that helpful and I feel an in-person examination with a board certified plastic surgeon would be the best way to find out what would improve your nose. If I lived in Charlotte I would consider Hunstad/Kortesis. Best wishes, Dr. ALDO
