The cheeks are such an important feature on our face, contributing significantly to our overall facial structure. Many of our clients wish for full, high cheekbones to preserve a youthful appearance and maintain structure and balance to their face. As we age, our skin texture changes and the production of the all-important collagen and elastin diminishes, reducing volume and firmness in our face. This gives the appearance of sunken or flatter cheeks and loose skin. It can also cause drooping of the lower half of the face (see Jowls). Some lifestyle choices can impact the rate at which collagen and elastin reduces, causing this condition to occur earlier than the natural ageing process, including excessive alcohol and poor diet, smoking and sun exposure.
We can help to restore the natural volume and definition to your face by using dermal fillers to enhance your facial structure. If you’re concerned about this condition, we offer a complimentary bespoke consultation to discuss your treatment options.
