26F and skin is in great shape, what would you recommend for perioral mounds? (Photos)

December 9, 2023
Asked By:Magical523112 in Seattle, WA

I'm 26F and skin is in great shape. I have always had this odd area but it didn't used to be so noticeable. As my face has been maturing this odd area has become more obvious. I do have a slightly recessed jaw and an underbite, but when I move my jaw forward the area looks the same. When I smile it seems to be camouflaged more. What can I have done here? I've been recommended cheek filler and filler under the area but I am worried about migration.

Stephen Matta, DO says:

Cheek filler is typically used to add volume to the mid-face and enhance the cheek area. While it can improve the appearance of the cheeks, it may not directly address under-eye hollowing. Under-eye hollows are often caused by a loss of volume in the tear trough area, which is the area between...
