What is Best Filler for Loss of Volume in Cheek Area?

Question

I am a 28 year old female and have recently noticed some moderate loss of volume in cheek area, resulting in sagging/ drooping appearance. What are the pros and cons of the various options in terms of aeshetic result?

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

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

Lorrie Klein, MD · Answer

I also like Radiesse for cheek volumizing.  Juvederm plus is also an option.  When Juvederm Voluma is approved in the future, that will be another excellent choice.  I like immediate gratification for my patients when possible, so I prefer these fillers to Sculptra.

Martie Gidon, MD, FRCPC, FAAD · Answer

We are fortunate in Canada to have Voluma which is a thicker Juvederm product.  It gives a natural result and lasts more than a year.  Next best is Perlane, then Juvederm Ultra Plus.

Fereydoon S. Mahjouri, MD · Answer

The best and the longest acting filler for cheeks are Sculptra, The second best is Radiesse and the shorter lasting results ( almost one year) is Juvederm ultra plus xc. Augmentation is dose related. The advantage of augmentation with filler is that they are reversable , if you did not like the results you will wait for theire absorbtion.

I perform many, many cheek augmentations with cheek implants and fillers following the proper aesthetics of facial beauty and IMHO, Perlane is the best filler to create soft, feminine cheeks.  It is less lumpy than Radiesse and creates very little swelling.  We call it the "red carpet" filler.  You can have Perlane injected to shape your cheeks in the day and be ready for the red carpet that same night.
