Best Filler Injections…Do you recommend filler, Botox and anything else in order to help improve my face? (Photos)

Actual Real Self Patient Question:  I’m almost 30 and am interested in getting filler in order to make my face look more feminine and younger. I was thinking of getting it in my cheeks and especially lips, as well as Botox in my lower jaw. I was also wondering what else you would recommend to enhance my appearance?

Dr. P’s Answer: I see that you wish to look younger. You are fortunate that you already look half your age. On your front view the only feature aging your face is the slight hollowness under your eyes and slight asymmetry between the left and right sides of your face (completely normal). On the 3/4 view it looks like you have early loss of volume in the pre-jowl area and marionette area. On lateral view your nasal profile is strong, making your nose slightly smaller and increasing the angle of your nose-lip (slightly raising your nasal tip) would feminize your profile. For your face, I would treat you with Sculptra Aesthetic to add natural volume where needed. For your profile you would likely benefit from the injection of filler at the base of your nose to lift the tip, and possibly a little filler on your profile to camouflage your small dorsal hump (that is unless you wish to have a surgical rhinoplasty.). As with any aesthetic treatment it is essential that you choose your treating physician most carefully based on their skill, knowledge, experience, and natural artistic vision. Good luck and be well.
