How does midface lift differ from Fillers? Besides the fillers being temporary, do they both give provide the natural look? Does midface lift add volume to my cheeks and flatten the nasal labial folds or would I still need to inject voluma? Now as far as for fillers, if I put voluma, would it flatten my nasal labial folds as well or would I need to use fillers on the folds as well?

Answer: Flat cheeks, Midface lift, Naso labial folds The advantage of a midface lift over fillers is that lower cheek tissues can be raised to the malar area with improvement of the naso-labial folds as well as the tear trough areas below the eyelids. More long lasting results are obtained with a higher risk profile than fillers.Voluma, Perlane and Radiesse are good volumizers for the cheeks and malar areas with less than ideal longevity and minor improvements to the naso-labial folds (smile lines).Artefil is a longer lasting alternative which is more costly.Please consult with an experienced Board Certified Plastic Surgeon in person prior to making treatment decisions.

Answer: Nasal labial folds and flat cheek treatment. How does midface lift differ from fillers? In my opinion, you do not need a midface or cheek lift. This will lift the tissue up and/or laterally (outside) to the cheek area which will make your face wide and your cheeks overly large. The lower half of your face is smaller that the upper half...I can not tell if you would benefit from a chin implant (I would need a side view photo).You may consider adding filler to the front of your cheeks (apple area) and to the nasolabial fold areas.
