I'm Asian. Would Injectable Filler Give Me 'Apple' Cheeks or Would I Have to Get Implants? (photo)

London9490
Hi there. I have flat cheeks. I'm happy with my cheekbones, it's more the area inwards towards the nose below the inner eye which I would like to have that 'apple' look. I believe you call this the malar fat pad. My question is which, implants or injectable filler , will give me the look I am after? I am less comfortable with the idea of implants, but I would go for whichever technique will give me the look I desire. I am 27. Thank you.
