What can I do for volume loss around the mouth area? (Photos)

Question

I’m 21 years old and have lot over 50 pounds, however my face has taken a huge hit. I am so insecure about my nasalobial folds and sagging mouth area. What can I do? I’ve tried fillers and PDO threads. Would more fillers and threads help? Would a facial fat transfer help? I’ve spent over 7,000$ trying to fix this and I just don’t know what to do anymore.

Facial sculpting and contouring can be created with well-placed fillers (Voluma, Countour, Radiesse, Bellafill) and Sculptra, which would give improvement in facial balance. Fat or implants are alternatives. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Hi @Adventurous361403. I recommend Morpheus 8. Morpheus8 is a non-surgical treatment for full body skin resurfacing, skin tightening, and fat reduction of stubborn areas. It uses minimally invasive fractional radiofrequency energy (RF) to penetrate the skin deeper than other microneedling devices, triggering the skin’s natural healing response to promote skin tightening and lifting. Best of luck, Dr. Nima!

Thank you for your question. Based on your age and photos, it does appear fillers are the best option for you. Keep in mind this treatment does require a great deal of expertise and experience to choose the right filler at the right dose, and place it in the precise location to ensure the best possible result. I would make sure you are working with a very qualified injector to ensure an optimal outcome. It's possible you would benefit from some filler in the cheeks or other areas to further enhance your results.

It does appear from your photos that more fillers would improve your concerns.  You can also consider adding Morpheus8 treatments to stimulate collagen production.  It can improve overall tone and texture of the skin.
