Does cheek filler improve under eye area & can it lift the lower face? (Photo)

Hi @angeldoc. I recommend Morpheus 8. Morpheus8 is a non-surgical treatment for full body skin resurfacing, skin tightening, and fat reduction of stubborn areas. It uses minimally invasive fractional radiofrequency energy (RF) to penetrate the skin deeper than other microneedling devices, triggering the skin’s natural healing response to promote skin
tightening and lifting.

Hi, I’m Lauren, the aesthetic injector here at Colorado Plastic Surgery Center.

Yes, cheek filler — especially Voluma — can absolutely improve the appearance of the under-eye area and is often the preferred approach for many patients. As we age, the fat pads in the midface naturally descend and lose volume, which can lead to a hollow, dark, or even puffy appearance under the eyes.

By restoring volume to the cheeks, we can create a smoother transition between the lower eyelid and the cheek. This helps to reduce the appearance of under-eye shadows and puffiness, often without needing to treat the tear troughs directly.

Of course, every face is unique. The best way to determine what’s right for you is to schedule a consultation with a skilled provider who can assess your individual anatomy and goals and create a customized treatment plan tailored to you.

Thank you for the question and photo you provided. Based on this one photo, I would agree that filler have a role in improving your facial aesthetic. However, filler would be the last piece of the puzzle. Here is what I recommend in order:
1. Morpheus 8 skin tightening
2. Lower blepharoplasty to address the excess fat and loose skin under your eyes
3. Filler to the cheek.
Good luck, make sure you consult with a board certified plastic surgeon.
