Would filler help me achieve more rounded cheeks? 21 y/o (photos)

Question

My cheeks seem very flat from the side and 3/4 profile view. I have a lot of face face and a lot from the from but it looks like it’s all in the lower part of my face. My face looks skinny and malnourished from the side I feel. I want round cheeks but I look old. I’m only 21.

Thank you for the question! First, based on your photographs, I would not say that you look "old." It is difficult to offer comprehensive cosmetic advice based off of 2 dimensional photographs. However, based on the photos you submitted, cheek augmentation with a soft tissue filler may provide the look you desire. Depending on the placement of the filler, it can offer additional width when facing forward or additional projection in the side view. Hyaluronic acid fillers, such as Voluma, are safe to use in 21-year-olds. I would recommend making an in-person consultation with a physician who specializes in the use of cosmetic injectables for an assessment.

Young people need filler too! Filler isn't necessarily a matter of age or weight. Facial structure and genetics are huge contributors. Scheduling a consult with an experienced injector would be your best bet. You can discuss your concerns and goals with the injector and make a plan that is best for you!
