Loss of Volume
Over time, the skin can lose structure and fullness, leading to changes in facial shape and definition. This may present as a softer appearance, with certain areas looking less supported than before, including the cheeks, under-eye area or lips.
These changes are a natural part of the ageing process and can vary depending on individual anatomy and lifestyle factors.
Understanding loss of volume
As we age, there is a gradual reduction in collagen, elastin and underlying fat within the skin. This can lead to a loss of volume and support across the face, including the mid-face, temples and lips.
These structural changes can also contribute to the appearance of lines or folds, as well as a general loss of definition.
Because facial structure and ageing patterns differ from person to person, treatment approaches are always tailored to maintain balance and natural-looking results.
What you may notice
- A loss of fullness in the cheeks or mid-face
- Hollowing under the eyes or at the temples
- Lips appearing thinner or less defined
- Deeper lines or folds around the nose and mouth
- Reduced facial definition
- A more drawn appearance
