Common problems: Sunken face & aged look
As we age or if we naturally have a slim facial structure, many of us experience sunken, hollow-looking faces with deep lines in frequently moved areas. This can make the face look tired, aged, and less radiant.
These issues happen because of a decrease in facial fat, collagen breakdown, and changes in bone structure over time. Let’s explore the common concerns together.
Sunken temples & hollow cheeks
How does this happen?
- The temple and cheek bones shrink with age, making the face look flat and less youthful.
- Loss of fat under the skin leads to hollow cheeks, making the face appear sunken and tired.
- The cheekbones become more prominent, giving a harsh, less soft appearance.
deep smile lines
Why do smile lines get deeper?
- As we age, skin loses elasticity, causing the lines to deepen.
- Facial bones shrink, reducing support for the skin, making nasolabial folds more noticeable.
- This makes the face look older, less friendly, and constantly tired.
Fixing a sunken, aged face – No surgery needed
Nowadays, non-surgical treatments have become the top choice for fixing a sunken, aged face. Unlike surgery, these treatments are less invasive, cost-effective, and require no downtime.
Two recommended treatments are hyaluronic acid (HA) filler and Sculptra.
HA filler: Instant youthful volume
HA filler is made from hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally found in the body. It absorbs water, expands, and instantly adds volume and hydration to the face.
This treatment is great for fixing hollow temples, sunken cheeks, and deep smile lines, with immediate visible results after injection. No downtime needed!

The filler settles within a month and lasts 8-12 months before naturally dissolving. High-quality fillers break down naturally without residue in the body. Longevity depends on injection area and individual metabolism.

Sculptra: Boosting collagen for long-lasting fullness
Sculptra contains Poly-L-Lactic Acid (PLLA), which stimulates collagen production in the skin. This leads to gradual, natural-looking fullness and firmness. However, unlike fillers, Sculptra does not provide instant results.
Results after Sculptra
Sculptra works over time to delay aging, restore facial volume, and prevent future hollowing. Skin starts to feel firmer and tighter in the first month. Full results become visible in the third month.
- 1 session lasts 6-7 months.
- 3 consecutive sessions (once per month) allow full collagen production, with results lasting up to 2 years.

Filler vs. Sculptra: A quick comparison
Your choice depends on how fast you want results and how long you want them to last. For instant volume and a quick fix, HA filler is the best option.
For long-term collagen production, firmer skin, and anti-aging benefits, Sculptra is the better choice.
