I was recommended to get buccal fat removal to achieve a more v-shaped face. I'm opposed to getting something permanent done in case I regret it later as I age. Any other less invasive options?
Answer: Lateral cheek fillers help lift some of the heaviness from my lower cheeks Lateral cheek fillers can indeed help lift some of the heaviness away from your lower cheeks. They work by adding volume to the upper cheeks, creating a lifting effect that can subtly reshape the face.Another non-invasive option that might interest you is the use of non-surgical facelift treatments, such as Ultherapy or Thermage. These treatments use ultrasound or radiofrequency technology to tighten and lift the skin, reducing the appearance of heaviness in the lower face.It's important to note that the results from these treatments may vary from person to person, and they may not provide as dramatic a change as surgical procedures like buccal fat removal. However, they do offer the advantage of being less invasive and reversible.We recommend you schedule a consultation with Dr. Anna to discuss these options in more detail and determine the best course of action for your specific needs and goals.

Answer: Facial Contouring with Fillers (Juvederm Voluma, Vollure, Volbella, Radiesse, Bellafil), Sculptra, Fat Grafting, Implants Facial sculpting and contouring can be created with well-placed fillers (Voluma, Countour, Radiesse, Bellafill) and Sculptra, which would give improvement in facial balance. Fat or implants are alternatives. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Lateral cheek fillers may not lift heaviness from your lower face. In our opinion, injectable fillers in the mid-face do not lift skin. Cheek fillers tend to make the cheeks appear wider. Based on your photos, it is possible that the fullness of your lower jaw could be from your masseter muscles. Do you have TMJ disorder, or do you chew gum? If the fullness is coming from your Masseter muscles, a Botox treatment may be excellent for jawline slimming. I hope this helps! Sincerely, Dr Joseph
