What procedures can improve sunken cheeks?
2026.11.08 00:15
Lately, whenever I look in the mirror, I am bothered by the fact that the sides of my cheeks look sunken. It isn't very noticeable from the front, but when I take photos of my profile or from a slightly side angle, the area below my cheekbones looks hollow, making my facial contours look uneven. It feels like my face has lost weight compared to before, or perhaps I have lost volume as I get older.
I am curious whether sunken cheeks are caused by a lack of facial fat or by a loss of skin elasticity. In this case, can it be naturally improved by receiving volume treatments like fillers or Juvelook? Alternatively, I would like to know if it is better to manage the sagging areas first with a lifting procedure.
Personally, rather than making my face look plump, I would prefer to have the sunken areas filled in appropriately to achieve a softer facial shape. I am concerned that the side cheeks might make my face look wider depending on the results. I would appreciate it if the clinic staff could answer whether the recommended procedure varies depending on the cause, as well as regarding the duration of the results and potential side effects.

- 01CommentsThe forehead and glabella are areas prone to developing fixed wrinkles due to repeated muscle folding during facial expressions, so it is truly wise to manage these areas proactively as a preventative measure! Generally, receiving wrinkle Botox every 3 to 4 months—timed to allow muscle movement to gradually return to normal—naturally prevents wrinkles from deepening. Xeomin is highly preferred because it is a pure toxin purified from complex proteins, which minimizes concerns about antibody formation or resistance with repeated treatments. You may wash your face and apply light makeup 3 to 4 hours after the procedure, but it is recommended to avoid saunas, excessive alcohol consumption, and strenuous exercise for about a week to prevent drug diffusion. During your consultation with the doctor, please ask them to adjust the dosage to a natural level that matches your eyebrow movements!550026.11.07

- 03CommentsSince the skin under the eyes is thin, boosters like Juvelook look more natural than fillers. There is minimal clumping of the skin texture, and it addresses both fine lines and a hollow appearance.130026.11.08

- 02CommentsI also got a consultation because I was told I looked tired due to defined lines under my cheekbones when I was expressionless. They told me that nasolabial folds need to be considered in conjunction with cheek hollowing or sagging. Since Botox alone might not solve the problem, make sure to ask about concerns regarding facial movements during your consultation. As someone who had a reality check to see if massages could smooth them out, I think it's faster to just see a professional.3840026.11.04
- 03CommentsI think it is a really prudent and good attitude to consider movement discomfort first rather than deciding based solely on the results! If you ask about movement during meals and monitoring options during the consultation, you won't regret it.850026.11.03
- 01CommentsGetting forehead fillers definitely has a great effect on improving wrinkles. I recommend getting Botox at the same time.1350026.10.12
- 02CommentsIf you fill in about 3 to 5cc evenly, focusing on the sunken areas, it will become plump without any bumps.750026.10.12
- 03CommentsIt stings slightly during the procedure, and the effects usually last 3 to 6 months. If you get it regularly before wrinkles settle, the results will last longer.1030026.10.12
