Question

What if any filler can be used to treat this hollow area?

Camille Cash, MD · Answer

Yes filler can be used to help support that area and improve the facial contour.  Another consideration is Morpheus8.  This treatment combines RF technology with microneedling to improve overall skin tone and texture.  It can used in in conjunction with filler.  We always recommend using medical grade skin care products and wearing sunscreen every day.

This area is caused by sagging of the cheeks relative to the skin. The best filler may be something with a high G' ("thick") filler in the cheeks, or a lower G' ("thinner") filler into the lines themselves. A full face picture would give a better idea of what would help. Just looking at that area in the photo, likely Restylane Defyne would work well.

Thomas Spalla, MD · Answer

Yes, this area can be treated with filler. Filler is often placed superiorly, along the cheek to aid in lifting this area. Along with this, some filling of the marionette line will help to blunt this area and avoid the shadowing and transition which makes it more noticeable.

Randy Lindgren, MD · Answer

Yes, Restylane Defyne and Juvederm Volure are excellent options for treating hollow areas. Restylane Defyne is a hyaluronic acid-based filler that provides flexible support and restores volume to deeper areas, offering a natural, smooth result. Juvederm Volure is a softer filler ideal for more delicate areas, giving a subtle, refined appearance. Additionally, PDO threads can be used to lift and support the area by stimulating collagen production, helping to improve contour and firmness over time.
For the best results and safety, we recommend consulting with a board-certified provider who specializes in facial aesthetics. They can assess your specific needs and tailor the treatment plan to achieve a natural, balanced look.
