Starting in my mid 20s, I noticed that I was losing volume in my mid face area. At 29 now, my cheeks now rest around my nose, creating a flat cheekbone area, deep nasolabial folds and droopy corners around my mouth (see photos). I have generally good features and don't want to mess with them and do more harm than good. What would you recommend to lift my cheeks and to reduce the mouth droopiness?

Answer: A Nonsurgical Mid-Face Rejuvenation With A Volumizing Filler Works Well For Mid-Cheek Volume Loss Your description accurately describes what I also see from the photos provided. Although it is somewhat premature, assuming you are in good health and there is no other underlying medical condition to explain this, I would have to agree that this degree of volume loss at this age may be a bit early, but by no means a rare occurrence. Fortunately, nowadays, this kind of problem can usually be easily and quickly treated in an office visit with volume repletion to the mid-face region--known as a nonsurgical mid-face rejuvenation. Voluma is my favorite volumizing filler for this purpose in my Upper East Side Manhattan office. Radiesse Plus is another choice. (In my Israel satellite facility, where a far greater number of regulatory agency approved fillers and volumizers are available, I would opt to use Stylage XXL and Emervel Volume for this purpose). Proper volumization of the mid-face will very likely secondarily improve the smile lines and marionette lines problem, and likely without needing to inject them directly. Be sure to seek consultation and treatment by a board certified aesthetic physician with experience and expertise in nonsurgical facial rejuvenation techniques. It is also important that you make certain that he/she has experience in injecting the male face; improper placement of volumizers can lead to inadvertent feminization of the male face. Be sure to ask to see his/her before and after photos.
