Fillers for the cheek area & migration...previous Dermalive Injections to NLF

Question

I’m 67 and unfortunately had Dermalive injections in the NLF & marionette lines about 20 years ago. Fortunately my nodules are not as extreme as some have had. I have lost volume in the cheek area but need to know what if any filler would be safe for me and not migrate to the Dermalive as this could prove catastrophic to me. Thank you.

There’s absolutely nothing that is safer as an injectable product than your own fat. You shouldn’t just focus on your cheeks or you will start looking just as funny as Madonna did when she had her cheeks filled out. You need to consider having your whole face brought  in to proper proportions that will make you look more youthful and just like the way you used to some 20 or 30 years or even more.  
When fat grafting to the face is done by an expert Plastic surgeon, who specializes in graft the results natural practically permanent. Hope this helps good luck, New York City, Plastic Surgery
