Had cheek liposuction about 2-3 years ago. Have always had chubby cheeks so the surgeon recommended cheek liposuction that really only went to my mid cheek (did not touch by buccal). Started noticing about 9 months ago a smile line on each side of my cheeks that really make whatever fat pad (if thats what it is) really pronounced and noticed the starting of jowls. What can I do to help this? Was looking into sculptra
I noticed for a little while I have these reddish things below my eyes, sometimes it is very noticeable and sometimes it isn't but I just learned that it could be a festoon or malar mound/bag - could someone please help and advise? I don't want them to get worse or have them in the first place lol - is it just from me not getting enough sleep?
Hi, Im 51 year old female. I was diagnosed with 3 years ago with chronic sinusitis and chronic Rhinitis and I also have a shrimp allergy. I stop taking steroids nose spray a year ago & started taking regular Claritin or ibuprofen on occasion. I recently went to a spa place and inquired about HA filler for mid cheekbones with a little structure contouring . Is it safe and okay to get an HA filler on Mid cheekbones for people with chronic rhinitis allergies and chronic sinusitis? I prepaid for Restylane Lyft because I was informed By their NP that HA filler is Safe for people with my condition. Thank you Chris
I would like to restore some volume in my face. My cheeks have lost volume and its the most visible on 3/4 view. Last winter I went to a plastic surgeon known in my city for facial contouring but she totally missed the mark. She filled the area above my cheekbones and my jaw for some reason, and that made things worse. She used radiesse but thankfully its not very visible now. Can the area in the pictures be filled again? Jaluronic acid or sculptra?
Hi, Ive posted here before about my situation. In 2023 aIposted about how I noticed my smile lines and under eye lines being pretty bad. HI have tried numerous treatments and although ive seen results near my eyes, I havent been able to get rid of the smile lines. I have done two rounds of radiesse (6 months apart) one time diluted all over cheeks, second time directly to upper cheeks not diluted. Ive gotten 3 rounds of PLLA under my eyes and one round by the cheeks. Ive gotten one round of PLLA to the smile lines directly, ive done half a syringe of Juvederm directly to the smile lines. Ive gotten two chemical peels and done two sessions of micrnoeedling. Im 25 and after everything I still see the smile lines. I do want to mention I struggle with smoking and want to know how much that affects my problem. I know its hard to tell from pictures alone but I am exhausted ,out of money ,and dont know what else to do to treat these.
Hello I have some concerns about my mid face , lower face ,eye lids and lower face (pre jowls?) Im 32 and I feel like Id benefit from some treatments Filler on my midface , maybe an upper blepharoplasty or maybe I can get way with botox .Not sure if I have enough skin I was told no and yes . Instead of fillers, I see young women are going for endoscopic midfacelift. Is this something Id benefit ? Would I see a difference? My mid face is not lifted as before , my under eyes they dont have the same volume and that made my mid face more flat . How do I now its time for fillers or endoscopic lifting ? I feel like endoscopic is for young patients like me but not everyone needs it . Id appreciate some help and feedback
Hi I had nasolabial folds filler and it looked unnatural. I had it disolved 8 weeks ago and Im am left with this indent and puffy fold at the side of my face. I have tried massaging it regularly but it wont go. It sticks out and is puffy and also I have an indent now. I have had cheek fillers but it has not helped. I hate my face now it has ruined my face. Please help and advise what I can have done to get rid of this. There is no filler left there, it is just a puffy fold with a indent at the side.
Hi Im 40 and have previously had mid face filler to target under eye appearance. Over 2 yrs ago. My injector whos highly regarded has Rec Sculptra now. I see my cheeks are very uneven - is one side still holding on to a ton of filler ? Voluma I believe. Should this be dissolved before i do anything new ? Im just looking for a little freshen up of my face.
I'm starting to notice facial volume loss, particularly in my cheeks, which is making my nasolabial folds appear deeper. I've always been a thin runner which served me well in my 20's but as a 36F, I think I'm starting to look gaunt. Im looking for a natural-looking, cost effective treatment option. Should I consider cheek filler, direct nasolabial fold filler, or something else? What will give me lift without looking weird?
These pictures are ~5 years apart. I am trying to figure out if the changes in my face are natural aging, one round of cheek fillers that possibly migrated (I don't know this for a fact but speculating), weight gain, TMJ related (I have arthritis in my jaw, grind my teeth, and wear a mouth guard at night) or something else. What would help? Jaw surgery? A facelift? I'm 43.
