When I smile my cheek look strange, they don’t go up, or just not high enough. And my teeth don’t show when I smile, no matter how hard I try, could that have anything to do with it. I like my cheeks when they are resting.

Facial sculpting and contouring can be created with well-placed fillers (Voluma, 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
