Gravity brings everything down and unfortunately our faces are no exception to this rule. As people age, the cheeks begin to flatten and droop. This process can actually begin its process as early as the 20s, but most people begin to notice tell-tale signs in their 30s. But, hey, the 30s aren’t old age! Unfortunately, gravity does not discriminate by age, ethnicity, or skin color. One of the best ways to correct droopy cheeks is through a cheek lift, sometimes referred to as a mid-face lift. A cheek lift reinstates fullness to the cheeks, softens deep lines from the corners of the nose to the corners of the mouth, and raises the outer part of the eyebrow. Most people gain a well-rested and youthful appearance through this procedure, and it is a popular choice among patients who have facial plastic surgery.
While cheek filling injections are a common choice for some women who are looking for a less expensive option, the outcomes of a cheek lift surgery are much more permanent than those provided by injections. Each cheek lift surgery is an individual process because everyone has a different facial structure, different skin elasticity, and different goals in mind. Most people who request a cheek lift surgery (or who are guided to this choice by a well experienced surgeon) feel that their faces look tired and sad. In men especially, this can give them the “grumpy old man” expression.
