Dermal Fillers
As we age, our faces lose volume particularly fat compartments in our cheeks and chin. The muscles and skin become loose and thinner. Our facial bones shrink and pull back. As we can see in these diagrams, the smile lines become deeper and jowling occurs from the complex interplay of loss of these supporting structures. From a youthful rounded face with smooth and soft angles, our faces become more narrow, hollowing out in the temples, cheeks, chin and jawline creating more shadows and sagging of tissues. Ethnic and cultural differences do exist.
Volume depletion develops in the forehead, beneath the eyes, cheeks, sides of the face and chin area in our 20s and 30s. These changes tend to progress in different parts of the face and at different rates uniquely for each person. Our physicians believe volumizing with properly and strategically placed dermal fillers restores a youthful and beautiful appearance. We strive for natural results, little can often be more. Treatments are performed gently and with little to no discomfort or downtime.
