Face Shape & Volume Loss

Changes to your face shape - including volume loss - occur as we age due to a progressive loss of fat, collagen, muscle and bone.

We frequently treat clients experiencing changes in their face shape due to volume loss, skin laxity, and the natural aging process. These changes can affect your facial contours, balance, and expression—but the good news is, we offer safe and effective non-surgical solutions that can help restore a more youthful, refreshed appearance. 

What Is Facial Volume Loss? 

As we age, our skin gradually loses fat, collagen, elastin, and even bone structure. This process leads to: 

  • Hollowed cheeks or temples 
  • Under-eye circles and tear troughs 
  • Thinning lips and loss of lip definition 
  • Jowls or sagging along the jawline 
  • Deeper nasolabial folds and marionette lines 
  • Looser skin on the face, neck, and décolletage 

Facial volume loss results in a deflated or tired appearance—but it is possible to replenish lost volume and redefine facial contours using advanced injectable techniques. 

Common Causes 

  • Aging – The primary factor in loss of facial volume, collagen, and bone 
  • Genetics – Some people are more prone to early volume depletion or structural asymmetry 
  • Sun exposure – Accelerates collagen breakdown 
  • Lifestyle factors – Smoking, poor diet, and stress can impact skin quality and elasticity 

Prevention Tips 

  • Use broad-spectrum SPF daily to protect collagen and prevent sun damage 
  • Avoid smoking and maintain a nutrient-rich diet 
  • Incorporate medical-grade skincare that supports skin firmness and hydration 
  • Consider early preventative treatments to slow the visible effects of aging 

How to Treat Volume Loss & Restore Facial Shape 

We offer a range of injectable and regenerative treatments that restore volume, improve skin texture, and support long-term collagen production: 

Dermal Fillers – Teosyal® & Belotero® 

These hyaluronic acid-based fillers are used to sculpt the cheeks, smooth lines, lift jowls, and enhance lips. They offer immediate, natural-looking results with minimal downtime. 

Biostimulators – Radiesse® 

Radiesse not only replaces volume but also stimulates your body’s natural collagen production. Over time, it helps improve skin tone, firmness, and texture from within. Also when used in more superficial layers of the skin, hyperdiluted Radiesse® improves laxity, crepey texture, and sagging in areas like the face, neck, décolletage, upper arms, and abdomen. 

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) 

PRP harnesses your body’s growth factors to improve skin tone, elasticity, and collagen production—especially effective when combined with microneedling.
