Cheek fillers for a 20 year old? (photos)

Question

I feel that the apples of my cheeks are lacking in fullness and it ages my face beyond my 20 years. What kind of fillers would be appropriate for someone so young?

John Mesa, MD · Answer

In my practice, I recommend my patients, specially young patients interested in addressing the lack of fullness of the apples of their cheeks initially with soft tissue fillers made of hyaluronic acid because they have the advantage of being 100% reversible.Voluma is a hyaluronic acid based filler designed specifically to  augment the mid face ( apples of the cheeks). When administered by a board certified plastic surgeon specialized in cometic plastic surgery procedures of the face like injectables, patients, specially young patients, could achieve a great enhancement of their cheeks.

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

You can use fat, fillers, sculptra all to enhance the cheeks even at a young age. I suggest seeing a cosmetic dermatoogist with experience in facial sculpting.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Yes, cheek fillers such as Voluma will create a nice improvement in your cheek volume and cheek shape. Seek a consultation with an experienced physician injector. Make sure that you like their before and after results. Cheeks are the new lips, meaning alot of injectors who know little about the shape of a beautiful cheek are injecting people with fillers in that area. Find someone who will create a natural, beautiful result for you.Stephen Weber MD, FACSDenver Facial Plastic Surgeon

Voluma or Restalyne Lift will give you subtle changes and are reversible. See an experienced injector.

You photo is very normal for a 20 year old and I would not suggest doing any fillers at your age.  Overfilling can alter your appearance and would not look natural.
