As we age, facial volume naturally diminishes due to several physiological changes.
Understanding these changes helps guide effective cosmetic treatments for a more youthful, balanced appearance.
What causes facial volume loss?
• Fat Pad Atrophy: The natural fat compartments in the face shrink and descend, leading to hollowing under the eyes, cheeks, and temples.
• Bone Resorption: Facial bones, especially in the mid-face and jawline, lose density and structural support.
•Muscle Changes: Muscle tone decreases, contributing to sagging and loss of firmness.
•Skin Thinning: Reduced collagen and elastin make skin less elastic and more prone to sagging.
Visible signs of volume loss:
•Hollow cheeks and under-eye “tear troughs”
•Flattened mid-face and sunken temples
•Deepened nasolabial folds and marionette lines
•Jowling and loss of jawline definition
Why choose a cosmetic nurse to discuss these concerns?
• Thorough consultation and assessments to develop personalised treatment plans
• Focus on patient safety and education
• Medical training and experience in skin, anatomy, product and techniques
We will always consider overall skin health and ageing process for optimal results.
