Facial Contours & Folds

As we age, the contours of our face changes and we develop sagging and folds, especially in the lower face. Do you find yourself pulling your face back to see what it will look like? Did you know that as we age the fat in our face goes away in certain places and stays in other places. This can create an imbalance in the face and your face can change dramatically from this.

• Jowls and a more squared off facial contour is common as well as our face “melts” into our neck. The jaw line looks less defined. The nasolabial and marionette folds (around the mouth) start to get deeper as we age. These folds around the mouth can also be caused from smiling and talking and are often called smile lines or laugh lines.
• Are you looking for more cheek definition and contour without using makeup? Are your cheeks flat? The cheek area is a great place for facial contouring enhancement as well as the folds around the mouth. Enhancing these areas makes the face look lifted without surgery.
• Another area of concern for facial contours is the under eye. The under eye area can become hollow and dark and the fat pads can bulge out making our eyes look puffy. This is known as a tear trough and this under eye depression is common even for young adults with certain facial anatomy. This depression under the eye makes you look tired and sometimes even sad. The bulging of the fat pads can make you look puffy and swollen even. The under eye area can be significantly improved and have long lasting results.

The results of treating facial contours and folds looks natural and keeps people guessing your age but not your choices. You can achieve a balance in the facial contours that is youthful and highly satisfying.
