Fillers in Cheeks and Side of Face to Help Decrease Smile Lines?

Hi Lisa. I agree that Juvederm could be a good option for volume restoration in the lip area. For cheeks, you may benefit from a product with more viscosity, such as Radiesse. It is best to have a thorough consult with a physician you feel comfortable with. If you are in the LA area, I or any of my colleagues would be happy to help. Best of luck!

I recommend you visit a well experienced provider. It is very common to fill the nasolabial folds and corners of mouth/marionettes with Juvederm. Cheek volume loss can benefit from filler, too; my patients really have gotten great results with filling volume loss in the malar area. I like Radiesse for cheek volume, since it is more viscous and a better volumizer than Juvederm. I wish you luck with your consult, Lisa!

If you lose volume in the cheek area, this will sage around the mouth and produce wrinkles.  So it's not unreasonable to try to attack the loss of volume in the cheek, buccal area, and preauricular area to help around the mouth.  I can't tell you if this is the right thing to do your situation.  You might need a little bit around the mouth as well.  My choice for volume is not Juvederm, it's either Radiesse, Perlane or Restylane.  Voluma will be coming and might be a good alternative too.
