What is the best way to treat deep malar/mid-cheek grooves? (Photos)

August 17, 2019
Asked By:Med6361 in London, GB

My grooves are getting worse over time. I'm male in my 30s Mediterranean with oily skin. I have tried a few different doctors with filler (cannula) over the years & the results are always the same. My cheeks are naturally full so my worry would be adding excessive amounts of filler will just make my cheeks look odd. Is there anything else I could try? Dermal filler done with cannula and superficially? Different types of filler? Threading to pull & tighten the skin? PRP?
