28 year old male. Mini-lift, filler, or something else to address sagging face/cheeks? (photo)

Asked By:Reliable940686 in San Francisco, California

Hi, I’m a 28 year-old male and over the past couple years my cheeks have begun to sag, leading to some creases by my mouth and eyes. I'd like to understand how I might rollback some of the aging that's appeared over the last couple years. I plan on getting a deep plane facelift later in life, but am wondering what I can do in the short term to address these issues. Whatever the procedure is, it's really important to me that it appear natural and subtle. Thanks!
