One sided crease on cheek (20). Is that a wrinkle or just fat loss?

September 10, 2020
Asked By:Celebrated485346 in New York, NY

Since I remember myself I had a crease on one side of my face. Because it is going down from my eyes it makes me look unproportionally old for my age. I used tretinoin .05 for about a month, but it hadn't really helped. Is that a wrinkle or just fat loss? Because I would like to know how I could solve this, and if laser resurfacing / retin A could help withought using a filler.
