What Causes Cheek Lift & Enhancement?

The sinking or sagging of the cheeks, caused by the loss of the natural cheek fat pads and the underlying supporting bone, can lead to:
- Formation of jowls.
- Flatter cheeks.
- Marionette lines (drooping corners of the mouth).
- Smile lines (nasolabial folds).
- Under-eye hollowing or eye bags/festoons.
- Loss of jawline definition.
These changes can begin as early as your 20s and often become more noticeable in your late 30s or early 40s.
