I'm 29/F/5'1/110lbs. People always said I had 'chipmunk cheeks'. I had buccal fat removal 4 yrs ago. My lower cheeks (especially the area around my mouth), are saggy and I always look like I'm frowning. I'm not sure if it is r/t to the loss in volume of my cheek fat, but I'm looking for a non-invasive solution. The sagging is mostly noticeable from the side. Would I be a good candidate for Radiesse? Would a Chin/Cheek Augumentation decrease the sagging and give me a more proportional face?
Answer: No perfect Solution No non-invasive treatment it going to totally fix what is bothering you, but given your age, non-invasive treatments are still the best option for you to look your best. I believe 2-3 syringes of a cheek filler (my preference is Voluma) will be a good start to reset the harmony and balance of your face to be more lifted. Again, this will not make the sag you see go away, but it may improve it. Other non-invasive skin tightening procedures can than be added for a bit more tightening (RF treatment in my practice).

Answer: Considering options You will likely have the best outcome from a combination of treatments. Botox or other neuromodulators can be used to slim the appearance of the jawline. Fillers can be used to add structure and contour facial features. Morpheus8 is a great treatment to improve overall skin tone and texture. I've included a video that I hope you find helpful.

Answer: Morpheus8 can penetrate deep enough to reduce appearance of saggy skin and help lift to provide a more defined look Morpheus 8 is a non-invasive skin and soft tissue tightening treatment that is consistently amazing in our patients. We use the Morpheus to exact fractional induced RF into the skin or tissue in order to tighten collagen and stimulate contraction of the tissue. For acne scars, it is quite useful to build collagen in patients who have atrophic scars but is not very productive for ice-pick scars which require TCA Cross. For tissue tightening, Morpheus is ideal for the face and neck and we often combine it with CO2 laser or Ultherapy to further enhance results. Chemical peels and skin resurfacing should be done at least 5 to 7 days after, but can be performed earlier, depending on treatment severity. Avoid exfoliating skin treatments before Morpheus and expect a period of 2-4 weeks for skin contraction to set in. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Realself100 Surgeon

Answer: Mini Facelift & Mini neck lift -- FaceTite RF for internal skin tightening + Neck Liposuction for definition/contouring FaceTite can internally tighten the skin in the lower face and neck. After all the skin has been heated and contracted, we shape the neck with liposuction to give definition and remove stubborn pockets of fat. In one quick treatment, we can tighten skin, remove fat, and contour the lower face, jawline, and jowls with only a weekend of downtime. Keep in mind that combination approaches will give you a more significant improvement as opposed to a single procedure. I recommend getting a consultation with a board-certified cosmetic dermatologist and facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: No surgical enhancement Hi there! Thank you for the question and pictures I think you would be a great candidate for hyaluronic acid based dermal filler as a non-surgical solution. Re-volumisation using dermal fillers are great when addressing facial contours, volume loss and aesthetic proportions, carefully placed product in cheek, jawline and chin would be an option looking at the pictures. Make sure you consult an expert aesthetic practitioner for face to face consultation. I hope this helps and good luck!
