21 years old with chubby/saggy cheeks. Will cheek fillers help? (Photo)

Hello,Thank you for your question and pictures. Fillers injected into the lateral face/cheek can help make the face look more proportional. However, there are other treatments that may also address your specific concerns. Often time a combination of treatments is the best approach. Please consult with a local physician in person to determine the best course of action. Good luck!

A combination approach would give the most improvement. Deep wrinkles and smile lines can be improved with a combination of Botox and/or fillers for the lines themselves and to build anatomical support with Sculptra for collagen building. Ultherapy is a great skin tightening device, but works best in combination with other treatments like J Plasma, RF treatments, lasers, microneedling/PRP, salt facials, Cosmelan for skin tightening and improve skin tone. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Thank you for your question. Fillers can help to contour and slim the face. You may even consider using it conjunction with Botox. Be sure to visit a skilled and qualified injector. 

Thank you for sharing. Based on the images provided, I would suggest a combination of Ultherapy and Voluma. Ultherapy will  nonsurgically lift the skin by using targeted ultrasound waves to the deep layers of the skin. Voluma can be used for the chicks to add volume and provide a nice lift. The combination of these two will provide nice results. It is important to seek consultation from a board certified dermatologist with experience. Thank you and best of luck to you!

I think that I would do several things to improve you issues. I would put filler in the lateral cheeks. This will give width to the upper face and start the V Shape which is desired. Next I'd place Botox/Dysport in the masseters to try to slim the mid and lower face. I don't know if this would work because I can't feel your masseters for hypertrophy. Lastly, I'd augment your chin with filler because it is weak. This would also lead to the illusion of a more narrow lower face and help with the V Shape as well. If you still had a heavy lower face, more aggressive measures would be needed such as FaceTite and/or liposuction.

Thank you for your question.  Dermal filler in the cheeks is often a first step in acheiving an overall youthful appearance.  In skilled hands, a very natural and youthful is achieved with dermal fillers such as Radiesse.  Often dermal fillers are coupled with other treatments such as Ultherapy to acheive long lasting natural results.  Contact an expert in your area.  Good luck.

Using a dermal filler with a large protein size such as Voluma or Restylane Lyft would provide more supportive volume to your midface and lateral cheek bone.  Creating these contours in your cheek bones will provide proportional balance, where you will have created more volume in the upper part of your face.  If you are genetically prediposed to muscle laxity in the lower face, it would be a preventative meausre for you to seek out a laser treatment such as Ultherapy to lift and tone the muscles of your lower face.  
Best Regards, 

Thank you for your question. Proper placement of dermal fillers along the lateral aspect of the cheeks will help give you a more lifted look and will slim down the lower face. I recommend seeing an expert. All the best, Dr.Michon
