Will cheek implants start to look unnatural as I age? (Photo)

April 6, 2016
Asked By:Andrewdemitri in Huntington Beach, CA

I am interested in getting cheek implants for a chiseled look and feel like this would balance my face, but have concerns that as I age my skin will sag causing a "shelf" like appearance where the implant is. Is this common or even happens? If so, what options would I have besides fillers for a chiseled look? Thank you for your time and responses :)
