Cheek dimple/malar bag remedy (Photo)

liv_artApr 1, 2024
I havehad this upper cheek dimple (i unnderstand its called an "indian dimple") since childhood when it was much more subtle. With age it has gotten more and more pronounced and the muscle is overdeveloped when smiling. It has gone from being cute and full of character to being very noticeable and increasing midface and vertical cheek grooves. Sculptra softened the look but not enough. Can filler, botox or other procedure help weaken the muscle or effect? As an actor it effects my work
