What's best option for lower face hollowing? (Photo)

Question

I am curious if PRP or microneedling would be best in this area versus a filler? I just want more tightness / less hollowing on my lower face area, and seeking guidance on what treatment I would benefit most from / area would yield more youthful appearance

Shery Mokhtare, MD · Answer

ased on what I can see, the primary concern appears to be volume loss and mild hollowing in the mid-to-lower face rather than a skin texture issue alone. While PRP, PRF, and microneedling can improve skin quality, collagen production, and overall skin health, they typically do not provide the same degree of structural support or volume restoration as filler.
For patients seeking a more youthful appearance with improved facial contours, treatment often involves restoring lost volume first and then addressing skin quality with collagen-stimulating treatments such as PRF, RF microneedling, or laser resurfacing. The best approach depends on your anatomy, degree of volume loss, and desired outcome.
Many patients benefit from a combination treatment plan rather than relying on a single procedure. A comprehensive facial assessment would help determine whether volume restoration, collagen stimulation, skin tightening, or a combination of these approaches would provide the most natural and balanced result.
Best wishes on your rejuvenation journey.
