I Want my Face to Look Fatter and Rounder. It's Long and Skinny, What Can I Do?

Radiesse, Voluma, and Sculptra can all be used to add volume to the face. It is difficult to tell you exactly what you need and what would work best for your goals without seeing you in person. Fat grafting could also be an option for you as well. It is best to have a consultation so that the treatment can be explained in detail and to determine what the best treatment would be for your needs.

Clinical Context

Different treatments carry different risks. Filler placed in the cheek or temple can be injected too close to blood vessels if technique and depth aren't right, so choosing an experienced injector matters as much as the product used. Overfilling can make the face look swollen rather than naturally fuller. Fat grafting avoids synthetic material, but not all transferred fat survives, so surgeons often add a bit extra, and final results take a few months to settle as swelling resolves.
