I'm 22, I have had deep mid cheek lines and saggy cheeks since I was a child. I have a line that start at the tear through, extends to the mid cheek and then the cheek below the line is saggy. They look like Malar festoons. I want to make it clear these have always been here. I tried filler that had to be dissolved as it made them worse. I'm not a great candidate for surgery. What other options do I have, learning to live with them isn't an option I'm only with.
Answer: Facial features I encourage you to begin by visiting with a board certified plastic surgeon near you for a consultation. Depending on the nature of the tissue some options may include FaceTite, Morpheus8, or potentially Evoke Facial Remodeling. Visit my website or a provider near you to learn more.

Answer: Morpheus8 can help reduce appearance of festoons and penetrate deep enough to reduce facial volume. Morpheus 8 is a non-invasive skin and soft tissue tightening treatment that is consistently amazing in our patients. We use the Morpheus to exact fractional induced RF into the skin or tissue in order to tighten collagen and stimulate contraction of the tissue. For acne scars, it is quite useful to build collagen in patients who have atrophic scars but is not very productive for ice-pick scars which require TCA Cross. For tissue tightening, Morpheus is ideal for the face and neck and we often combine it with CO2 laser or Ultherapy to further enhance results. Chemical peels and skin resurfacing should be done at least 5 to 7 days after, but can be performed earlier, depending on treatment severity. Avoid exfoliating skin treatments before Morpheus and expect a period of 2-4 weeks for skin contraction to set in.

Answer: Improving Deep Wrinkles -- Botox/Xeomin/Dysport/Jeuveau, fillers, fat, RF treatments, Ultherapy, Renuvion, lasers, Sculptra A combination approach would give the most improvement. Deep wrinkles and smile lines can be improved with a combination of Botox and/or fillers for the lines themselves and to build anatomical support with Sculptra for collagen building. Ultherapy is a great skin tightening device, but works best in combination with other treatments like J Plasma, RF treatments, lasers, microneedling/PRP, salt facials, Cosmelan for skin tightening and improve skin tone. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Deep Cheek Lines and Saggy Cheeks. The support of the soft tissues of the face come from the maxilla, the jaws and the teeth. I suspect that your would be an excellent candidate for a DNA Appliance and Epigenetic orthopedics.
