Volume Loss

From aging to weight loss, facial volume loss can occur for any number of reasons, and it can often make you look older than you are. Luckily, with the expertise of Dr. Beverly Fischer and her team, you can finally address volume loss and achieve the beautiful, youthful appearance you desire.

Understanding Volume Loss

Volume loss refers to a reduction in fat that leads to hollows, a sunken appearance, and a lack of youthful contours. It can also lead to lines and wrinkles, crepiness, folds, sagging skin, and a tired or gaunt appearance.

Volume loss can happen for a wide range of reasons, including aging (when collagen production decreases), smoking, excess sun exposure, significant weight loss, hormonal changes, and simple genetics. All these factors can reduce the skin’s ability to bounce back, especially if your skin’s elasticity is lacking.

Who Does Volume Loss Affect?

Volume affects everyone. No matter if you’re a man or a woman, as you get older, you will likely experience volume loss in the face at some point in your life. It can affect the lips, cheeks, temples, undereye area, and jawline, often making you look older than you feel.

Luckily, with the treatments we offer at the Advanced Center for Plastic Surgery, you can turn back the clock and plump up your facial appearance.

Treatments for Volume Loss

With Dr. Fischer and her team’s expertise, you can address your volume loss and transform your appearance. At our office, we offer dermal fillers and fat transfer to help you plump up and rejuvenate your face and ensure you love what you see when you look in the mirror.

Dermal Fillers

With just a few injections of dermal fillers, you can restore your volume, achieve a younger-looking appearance, and fill in hollows, thin lips, and contour your overall facial appearance. At the Advanced Center for Plastic Surgery, we offer two of the most popular and effective dermal fillers: Restylane and Juvederm. They both use hyaluronic acid to attract and bind moisture in the treatment area to not just hydrate, but restore lost volume. And the results are instant!

Fat Transfer

Looking to restore your facial volume and achieve natural-looking results? Fat transfer may be the perfect solution for you. And because the fat is taken from any area you don’t want and injected into an area where you do want it, it’s a win-win. The process involves loosening and suctioning out the unwanted fat from the donor area. It will then be purified and carefully injected into the targeted areas of the face. The results can last for years and can be permanent if you stick to certain guidelines.

Frequently Asked Questions

How can I prevent volume loss in the face?

There are several ways you can prevent volume loss in the face. You’ll want to protect your skin with a broad-spectrum sunscreen, stay as hydrated as possible, stick to a healthy diet, and practice a good skincare regimen.

How long do the results of dermal fillers last?

How long dermal fillers last will depend on the type of dermal filler used. On average, you can expect to see results for 6 months to two years. After that point, you will need maintenance treatment to keep up your results.

What is the recovery process like with fat transfer?

Initially, after your fat transfer, you will notice some swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort in the donor and treatment site. These side effects will fade in the days and weeks as you heal. You will also need to wear a compression garment to help reduce swelling. Avoiding strenuous activities for a few weeks is also crucial. We typically recommend taking about a week off work, especially if you have a physically-demanding job.
