Sunken Cheeks

In recent years aesthetic practitioners who study the outward signs of ageing on the face have been focussing on the loss of facial volume that occurs as many of us get older.
 
Loss of muscle tone, and, in particular, fat lying beneath the surface of the skin can flatten the once rounded profile of the cheeks.
 
It is thought by some that this loss of volume resulting in a more angular profile and hollowed cheeks can age the appearance of the face more than visible wrinkling of the skin.
 
Treatment options range from some minor procedures, that may help to reduce the appearance of the early signs of ageing in this area, to surgery that can have a more significant impact.

Fat transfer, fat transplantation or microlipoinjection involves the collection of fat via liposuction for re-injection into other areas of the face and body.
