Dermal filler must be placed in under fallen cheek pads to remedy the hollows under my eyes and nasolabial folds. Why? (Photo)

January 27, 2015
Asked By:KTS Finesse in Lawrenceville, GA

I have had a consultation with a dermatologist and a plastic surgeon. Both have said that i have to have fillers places under my fallen cheek pads to remedy the hollows under my eyes and my deep nasolabial folds. My problem with this technique is i dn't think it will give me the natural results I want. It's more logical to place the filler in the nasolabial folds and in the hollows under my eyes. It would also take less filler. I naturally have big, high cheeks. I don't want to add volume.

Jacquelline Leva, DO says:

This is one of the high risk areas that is the vein their closely aligned with facial artery and very high risk for blindness.

Thank you for your question. Yes, fillers are very safe when administered by a trained professional. And if your getting hyaluronic fillers they can be reversed with an injection. I would recommend that you see a board certified plastic surgeon in your area for a consultation. Good luck.
