How to Get Rid of Cheek Wrinkles? (photo)

Everyone's skin ages differently and the reasons include genetics, environmental exposure to sun, dry cllmates, smoking status.  Since retinols are very useful for supporting skin function like hydration, collagen formation and repair, their use is widespread in many medical skin care regimens. Cleansing and exfoliating the skin help, in addition to the retinols. You may benefit more from a stronger than over the counter retinol, and your plastic surgeon could prescribe this.

  Other treatments might include fractional laser, like fractional CO2 or erbium to smooth and tighen the skin.  Fillers are helpful, but since you are so young and would need them the rest of your life, it would be good to correct your skin health itself, not just use fillers.

Dear Violet,

It's very normal for young women to have laugh lines.  They will always be there so you can never completely remove them.  Using medical- grade skin care products is the first line of treatments.  Fillers will only help partially because the lines are cause by the attachments of the muscles to your skin.  Juvederm is my first choice in these line.  Botox will not help.  Skin resurfacing such as lasers can also help.  Subcision technique where your doctor undermines the lines with a needle can also help.   Get a consult from a board-certified doctor.  Best of luck.
