Let’s Talk About Volume and Contour: Restoring Confidence at Every Age
Ageing is a natural process, but that doesn’t mean we have to feel less confident in our appearance. At Portstewart Family Dental, we believe in helping our patients feel as youthful on the outside as they do on the inside. For many, this means addressing the subtle volume loss and shifting contours that occur with age—particularly in the cheeks.
Why Do Our Cheeks Lose Volume?
Sunken cheeks are often one of the earliest signs of facial ageing. As we get older, our skin loses collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid—natural substances that give our faces structure and bounce. Fat pads that help create youthful shape also start to shrink and shift downward, leading to flatter, more hollow cheeks.
This change can also be accelerated by lifestyle and health factors. Illness, smoking, harsh weather exposure, and weight loss can all reduce the elasticity of skin and contribute to volume loss, making the cheeks appear drawn or hollow.
In some people, the loss is asymmetrical—maybe one cheek looks flatter than the other. Others may notice that their lower face appears heavier or droopier due to this shift.
The Power of Dermal Fillers
At Portstewart Family Dental, we use high-grade dermal fillers—most commonly those based on hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally found in the body. These fillers are tailored to your specific concerns, and our most popular range, Teoxane RHA4, is designed to restore volume while maintaining a natural look and feel.
Teoxane works particularly well in high-movement areas like the cheeks because it integrates smoothly into the skin without looking stiff or “frozen.” We always use a local anaesthetic to ensure your comfort during treatment.
Bespoke Treatment Plans, Real Results
Every face is unique, which is why we always begin with a full consultation. Whether you’re after soft lift and balance or a more sculpted, high cheekbone effect, we’ll help you decide the right approach for your goals and facial structure.
Cheek contouring with fillers can:
- Restore volume and definition
- Lift the lower face
- Soften deep folds or shadows
- Create a more youthful appearance
- Rejuvenate without surgery
