Volume Loss

Understanding Natural Volume Loss in the Face Due to Aging

As we age, our faces naturally undergo various changes, one of the most significant being the loss of facial volume. This process is primarily caused by the depletion of fat pads in key areas, including the mid and lateral cheeks and temples. These fat pads provide youthful contours and fullness to our face, and their gradual loss leads to the common signs of aging.

Restore Fullness, Balance & Youthful Radiance

One of the most noticeable signs of aging is the gradual loss of facial volume. Over time, the fat pads, collagen, elastin, and even bone structure that once gave your face youthful fullness begin to diminish. This leads to hollow cheeks, sunken under-eyes, thinning lips, and sagging skin.

The Role of Fat Pads in Aging

Mid Cheeks

The fat pads in the mid-cheek area are crucial for maintaining a youthful appearance. As these fat pads diminish, cheeks can appear hollow, leading to a sunken look that emphasizes fine lines and wrinkles. This is often the culprit behind tired appearing under eyes and contributes to jowling.

Lateral Cheeks

Loss of volume in the lateral cheeks contributes to a flatter, less defined facial structure, namely the heart shaped symmetry of youth. This can create a more tired and aged appearance and contribute to deepening maniacal folds and jowling.

Temples

lose fat and bone over time, which can cause a hollowed or concave appearance. This not only affects the temples themselves but also influences the overall harmony and balance of the facial features creating a “gaunt” look. The temples are often an overlooked area needed to restore a more youthful, vibrant look.
