NON-SURGICAL METHODS TO FILL SUNKEN CHEEKS<\/strong><\/p>\n

There are currently various methods to fill sunken cheeks, ranging from non-invasive to minimally invasive and surgical.
Below is a classification and analysis of non-surgical methods to fill sunken cheeks according to Dr. Lu Huynh Thanh Thao, Anh Tu Clinic:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

1. Filler injection (HA – hyaluronic acid):<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Mechanism: Instantly adds volume to the sunken cheek area.
Advantages:
\u2022 Immediate effect.
\u2022 No downtime required.
\u2022 Can be adjusted or dissolved if unsatisfactory (with HA).
Disadvantages:
\u2022 Temporary effect (6\u201318 months).
\u2022 Risk of vascular complications if injected incorrectly.<\/p>\n

2. Collagen-stimulating filler injections (Biostimulatory fillers)<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Examples: Radiesse (CaHA), Sculptra (PLLA).
Mechanism: Stimulates the body to produce endogenous collagen to fill sunken areas.
Advantages:
\u2022 Long-lasting effect for 1\u20132 years or more.
\u2022 Improves skin quality simultaneously.
Disadvantages:
\u2022 Gradual effect, not immediate.
\u2022 Requires correct injection technique.
\u2022 Cannot be quickly reversed like HA.<\/p>\n

3. Autologous fat injection:<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Mechanism: Fat is harvested from the abdomen\/thighs, processed by centrifuge, and then injected into the sunken cheeks.
Advantages:
\u2022 Long-lasting effect if fat survives well.
\u2022 Autologous material \u2192 low risk of allergy.
Disadvantages:
\u2022 Results unpredictable (fat survival rate varies).
\u2022 May require repeat injections.
\u2022 Must be performed in a facility with a sterile operating room.<\/p>\n

4. Microneedling RF or HIFU (High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound)<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Objective: Does not directly fill, but improves tissue firmness, \u201cthickening\u201d the soft tissue in the cheek area.
Suitable: Mildly sunken cheeks with loose skin.
Effectiveness: Requires a full course and is slower than injections.<\/p>\n

Choosing a method to fill sunken cheeks needs to be personalized according to skin condition, degree of hollowness, soft tissue thickness, and patient expectations.<\/em><\/p>\n
