I am a very thin woman (5'1", 90lbs), with facial volume loss. Previously, I have had tried Sculptra, and developed a large visible lump on my jaw line. I also have had filler in nasolabial fold area, and found that the "thinner" dermal fillers looked the best/most smooth in the lower face area (i.e. Silk).
