What are these weird lines on my cheeks when I smile and how can I fix them? (Photos)

Question

These lines aren't very noticeable when I'm not smiling. But when I do smile, they take over my face! I don't want to be self conscious about smiling. What are these lines and how do I make them go away?

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

A combination approach would give the most improvement. Deep wrinkles and smile lines can be improved with a combination of Botox and/or fillers for the lines themselves and to build anatomical support with Sculptra for collagen building. Ultherapy is a great skin tightening device, but works best in combination with other treatments like J Plasma, RF treatments, lasers, microneedling/PRP, salt facials, Cosmelan for skin tightening and improve skin tone. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with an expert. Best, Dr. Emer
