How to tighten saggy cheeks?

Doctor's Answer

Depending on the cause of the saggy cheeks, the extent of facial volumetric deflation(if any), degree of soft tissue descent, bone structure, skin quality, gender and facial proportions of the person. the following are some of the common treatment options that can be done to improve saggy cheeks/sagginess of the face in general.

1. Energy devices like Thermage, HIFU and Ulthera can help to boost collagen stimulation, tighten and lift up saggy skin over cheeks.

2. Dermalift or intradermal microbotox injections can also help to tighten and lift saggy skin over the lower face

3. Pulsed radiofrequency microneedling with Sylfirm can help to improve skin texture and firm up the skin

4. Filler injections at the right places can help with replenishing volume deficits, and provide lifting by providing support to weakened retaining ligaments, hence improving overall face contour and sagging.

5. Threadlift will give immediate improvement to moderate saggy lower cheeks and over time stimulate collagen to improve the overall facial contour.

Often, a combination approach is used to achieve the best results. Do get an assessment by a certified and experienced doctor who will be able to discuss the treatment options available with you and come up with a customised treatment plan for you.
