Volume Loss

in Pittsburgh, PA

What Is Volume Loss?

Volume loss in the face is a natural part of aging, leading to hollowness, sagging, and a sunken appearance, particularly around the cheeks and temples. It occurs as the face loses collagen, fat, and elasticity over time. These changes can make the face look tired or gaunt, impacting overall facial harmony. Treatments for volume loss focus on restoring a youthful contour and fullness to the face, helping to rejuvenate and enhance natural features.

What Are the Causes of Volume Loss?

Collagen and fat loss naturally occur with age.

GLP1 medications (Ozempic Face)
