I want my anteromedial cheek aka "apple of the cheek" to be full and youthful but I notice that when I add filler to that area, my submalar area directly below that aka hollow also increases in volume, giving my face a bottom heavy look that I do not like. I understand there is the infraorbital neurovascular bundle above the anteromedial cheek point of injection so would asking the physician to place the filler slightly higher be problematic?

Answer: Voluma technique You're asking a very specific question about the risks and benefits of various rejuvenation options. I commend you for asking such a knowledgeable question. I would strongly suggest that you consult with a highly experienced injector who understands both your aesthetic goals as well as the anatomy of the midface and the risks of each of your treatment options. You can then make an informed decision as to how you would like to proceed.

Answer: Natural facial volume augmentation with Voluma Voluma (Juvederm Voluma XC) is a great hyaluronic acid based filler that can augment and rejuvenate the facial appearance. A voluma natural result not only depends on the location where the injection is placed (…anterio-lateral, etc.), but also on the skills and experience of the injector. Voluma acts as a “liquid implant”, therefore, injectors with great knowledge of the facial anatomy like plastic surgeons or craniofacial surgeons should be able to deliver a great natural looking results. Patients interested in facial augmentation with voluma should discuss this treatment option with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon specialized in cosmetic surgery of the face.
