Filler to improve lower face?

Question

I’m F, 45. I stopped getting filler 2 1/2 yrs ago since over time it had made my face chubby/wide. Went instead w regular RF microneedling + Botox + new surgeon. I’m ready for filler again for the area around mouth (NL lines, accordion lines on cheeks when smiling) but doctor says I already have enough natural cheek volume + is hesitant to do cheekbone filler for lift. Is jawline filler an option to help + will it make me look wider? Will filler for temple hollows help lower face?

It's difficult to say without the benefit of a formal evaluation. This is my expertise and a huge portion of my practice. Asymmetry is normal and expected. See an expert who does facial shaping with surgical and non surgical methods to get a comprehensive option. Best, Dr. Emer.

Thank you for posting your question. Dermal fillers are perfect for nasolabial folds and wrinkles. An expert injector can choose the appropriate filler and placement to avoid extra volume. Overall, they can help with shaping and lifting for symmetry and contouring. Laser treatments may also help with lines and wrinkles, depending on your goals. It is important to work with an experienced, qualified injector that can provide a comprehensive assessment and guidance.

Without photos it is not possible to tell if fillers are recommended based on your goals.  If you are happy with the surgeon you are seeing and trust her/his opinion, I would adhere to it as long as you have discussed your goals.  Filler is a great tool used to add volume and sculpt facial contours.  If HA filler is used it can be dissolved with hyaluronidase if results are not as desired.

Hello @Ginger_Snap123, thank you for your question. It is important to develop a protocol that fits your possibilities, to fulfill your wishes for improvement and to take into account what can actually be achieved to enhance lower face with fillers or if another option is needed. Is best if consult one or several board certified plastic surgeon for more information and recommendations. Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez MD, FACS.
