Thank you for your question and photos. 
You have mild to moderate skin laxity  the face, you can greatly benefit from this ultimate minimally-invasive technology as ThermiTight® Treatment. This is a unique, proven, and custom-tailored technology for skin tightening, body contouring, and wrinkle reduction. It can be used on ANY type and any color skin, requires minimal downtime, and ONLY 1 treatment is needed to see substantial improvement.This treatment is done under local anesthesia, utilizing a special Tumescent Solution injected into the targeted area while the patient is totally awake. The surgeon then inserts the the SmartTip™ thermistor probe under the skin, moving it gently and strategically while the skin is heated to a clinician-selected therapeutic temperature. This will contract collagen molecules and stimulate collagen production, which helps to achieve the lifted or tightened appearance in just 45 minutes. The patient feels completely relaxed and comfortable like having a warm massage at a spa.

Hi @Tvelazquez9579. Thank you for sharing your photos. Weight loss results in loss of facial volume. Dermal fillers are a great option to restore the volume loss. Best of luck to you, Dr. Nima!

Thank you for your question! Fillers are a great option. When you lose weight, you lose facial volume. Fillers can restore that volume. Dermal fillers are injected into the skin to fill out hollow or sunken cheeks, without the risks of going under the knife. Certain dermal fillers stimulate your body to produce it’s own collagen, so the benefits continue even after treatment. I wish you the best in your recovery.

Volume of the face can be improved with well-placed fillers (Voluma, Radiesse, Bellafill) and Sculptra. Fat or implants are alternatives. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Thank you for including your pictures and your question.  I am sorry for your illness however; it looks like you are moving forward. Losing volume from the face can easily be replaced with dermal fillers.  I would recommend an in person consultation with an injector to evaluate which filler is best for you. In my practice we only use Allergan products.  Best wishes  

Hi,Thank you for including your pictures. I am happy that you are better from your illness. Weight loss, intended or otherwise, can deflate the fat pads in the face and cause a gaunt appearance. Dermal fillers are a highly effective way of reversing these unwanted changes. An in person consultation with a facial plastic surgeon will be informative and a good place to start. Best, Mehdi Sina, MD

Thank you for your question and photos. Judging from your photos, and your age, I would suggest Sculptra as the appropriate filler. It is the longest acting filler, and it can be injected in small quantities virtually everywhere replacing your lost volume. Other products can be used as well, but my suggestion for your problem is Sculptra.Best of luck to you. I'm glad you are over your sickness.
