Is a cheek lift supposed to address nasal folds? Photo)

Trustworthy605558Aug 20, 2024
Hello. I had a cheek lift 4 months ago and i see no difference in my nasal folds. I was under the impression that the procedure was supposed to help with this. I spoke to my surgeon about my concern and he said it could only be helped with fillers. Is that true? Should i see someone else for a revision? Is there some other procedure that could help with the folds? Thank you

A temporal cheek lift would lift your malar fat pad and efface the nasolabial fold. This is not usually needed in younger patients but may be the answer in your particular situation.

A cheek lift will not correct this. You have excess skin left from the eyelid procedure. This can be removed with extension of the scar laterally enough to remove the overhang which should correct this.Hope this helps.

You're very young and from the photo it would appear that you would be a candidate for a nonsurgical HA Filler Cheek Augmentation. This would helped to contour the cheeks and create a more feminine heart-shaped, oval face and would secondarily improve the smile lines and even to some extent...
