Flat cheeks and prominent deep nasolabial folds. Am I a candidate for a mid-face lift or fat transfer? (photos)

Asked By:Yankee718 in New York, NY

I'm 22. Started noticing fat loss in my lower face. I strongly dislike my naso-folds as they are making me look older, and from in the pics you see they make my face look sunken, drawn and not pretty. I tried 1 syringe of juvederm ultra XC filler (injected into cheeks) but there was no difference in the lines. I'm looking for a permanent solution to eliminate lines and put volume back. Would mid-face lift or fat transfer work? I'm young but age shouldnt matter. I want to look as young as I feel.
