I've been trying to figure out what this area of the face is called. I thought it was submalar, but it seems to be a little bit below that area based off of what google images says the submalar region is & right above my jaw. Also, what filler can be used to fill this area?

Answer: Treating a hollowed face The area of the face you are referring to is called many things, one of them is pre-masseteric layer, another name is a preauricular area. This area tends to lose more fat in women over age 35 or after a pregnancy. The other reason this area becomes hallowed is because of stress and undue weight loss. In my opinion the best way to fill out this area is using the patient own fat, because when done well, the results are natural and permanent. But you must find a plastic surgeon who specializes in fat grafting specifically. A second choice for this area would be a filler called Sculptra but the results with Sculptra are not immediate as one has to wait for approximately 6 to 12 weeks because it is a bio-stimulatory product. I hope this helps and good luck from New York City Plastic Surgery

Answer: Correcting Pre-Mandibular Hollow This is just one of many areas neglected by most injectors. It is quite easily corrected with filler or fat by an expert injector who understands the anatomy of the area and how to inject it properly.
