Hollow cheeks and why they appear

Cheeks hollow when the fat compartments of the face lose volume, which leaves a deflated, tired look below the cheekbones. It is a normal part of ageing, and the loss of collagen that comes with it lets the remaining tissue sit lower, which also deepens the folds from nose to mouth.

There are two ways to put structure back. A hyaluronic acid filler restores shape on the day and can be dissolved. A collagen stimulator such as Juläine or Sculptra builds it gradually over months (Juläine vs Sculptra compares them); Sculptra's UK instructions list the cheeks, and a practice at UNTIL Marylebone publishes Juläine for the midface and cheeks. PLLA treatment in London explains how the slower route works.

Sunken cheeks and volume loss

Sunken cheeks are the same change seen at a later stage: the hollow below the cheekbone deepens and the face can look gaunt or tired even when you are rested. Collagen stimulators suit this slowly, as each session adds a little structure and the result builds over two to three months. Up to three sessions are usual for Juläine, and the maker gives a lifetime of 12 to 18 months.

A gaunt face and facial fat loss

A gaunt look comes from volume loss, often in more than one area of the face. Where the loss is marked, a doctor may combine a filler for shape with a collagen stimulator for the skin. Localised fat loss with a medical cause, called lipoatrophy, needs a doctor's assessment first, and Sculptra's UK instructions list it as a use. Tell the doctor about any recent change in your weight or health.

FAQ

Hollow cheeks
questions answered

Can Juläine fill hollow cheeks?

It restores fullness gradually rather than filling on the day. A practice at UNTIL Marylebone publishes Juläine for the midface and cheeks, and the change builds over two to three months as new collagen forms. Juläine London connects you with doctors who judge whether filler, Juläine or both suit your cheeks.

Why do cheeks become hollow with age?

The fat compartments of the face lose volume, and the skin loses collagen, so tissue sits lower and the area below the cheekbone looks deflated. Sun exposure and smoking speed the skin changes. Juläine London explains the treatments that put structure back, from filler to collagen stimulators.

Is Juläine or filler better for sunken cheeks?

Neither is better for everyone. Hyaluronic acid filler restores shape on the day and can be dissolved; Juläine builds structure over months and the maker gives a lifetime of 12 to 18 months. Juläine London suggests asking the doctor at your assessment which suits your face, or whether to combine them.
