Will filler help to make my cheekbones "pop" like they used to? (Photo)

Question

My face has changed over the years. It looks sunk/smushed in from the side. I have smile lines/folds from smiling. However I look mean:mad when I’m smiling. What can help to make my cheekbones “pop” like they used to and keep me from looking tired and mad all the time?

Hi @niknel. Thank you for sharing your photos. Juvederm Voluma is an excellent choice for cheek fillers.

Best of luck,

Dr. Nima

Facial sculpting and contouring of the face can be created with well-placed fillers (Voluma, Contour, Radiesse, Bellafill) and Sculptra, which would give improvement in facial balance. Fat or implants are alternatives. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Over time the bony structure of the face changes as well as the soft tissue overlying. This combination of change may be addressed through surgical and non-surgical options. Filler may restore volume and contour to the upper cheeks. Discuss with your provider on the best treatment options for you.
