I fainted from a standing position and hit the left side of my face. I had Juvederm but the dent is still there and my cheek looks fatter on that side. I wasn't happy. Any thing else for my dent? I hate it, I would rather have 4 toes instead of this dent. In all pictures, black and white the worst, it looks like a hole in my face to me. I try to hide it with my hair and depending on how I smile, it looks bigger.

Answer: Raidesse Is A Great Cheek Filler You are more likely to get a better correction with Radiesse than Juvederm in that area. What also helps is subcision (cutting the scar bands under the skin using the needle going back and forth).

Answer: Options for tethered facial scar: Dent in face! This is a difficult but common problem that is often due to scarring from a collection of blood beneath the skin that destroys the normal fat and replaces it with fibrous scar tissue that tethers the skin. Correction is twofold. One is to fill the volume loss and the second is t o release the tethered scar. Your Juvederm did not accomplish the second goal but merely augmented the normal untethered surrounding skin. Some form of scar release wtih subcision or needling must be performed in combination with the filler. Autologous fat is another option
