Sunken Area / Features

As we age, the natural fat pads that give our cheeks volume and fullness can diminish, leading to a more hollow appearance. This loss of fat can result in not only a reduction in cheek prominence but also a change in the overall contour of the face, making it look less youthful and defined.

In addition to fat loss, the skin's elasticity decreases with age, and the underlying bone structure can also undergo changes. These factors contribute to sagging skin, deepening nasolabial folds, and a less supportive framework for the facial features. The combination of decreased fat, lower collagen levels, and weakened skin resilience can create sunken cheeks, for example, that makes one look tired and old.

To counteract the appearance of sunken cheeks, various treatments are available, including dermal fillers, fat grafting, and more invasive surgical options like cheek implants or facelift procedures. These interventions can restore volume and enhance facial contours, helping to achieve youthful and vibrant look.
