Loss of volume is one of the main aging processes on the face. Over the years there is a continuous degradation of the facial bones. It is known that the ocular cavity increases, the bone structures of the eyebrows and the middle face become smaller, as well as the lower mandible, with its striking juvenile angle, which shapes the smooth and prominent mandible line of young individuals.
Initially, the patient‘s face is studied through photos and also through mimics to evaluate the places where the structures are most depleted in volume. Most of the time, the cause of volume loss is the displacement of fat compartments or SMAS due to bone transformation that occurred by absorption over the years. Therefore, treatment often begins with the restoration of bone support to the facial tissues, that is, we treat the cause of the problem initially. This is done through injections directly into the periosteum of the zygomatic bone, which will prevent future displacements for a period of time(literary articles mention periods of up to 30 months). Only then will the cheek apple area be injected, with the hyaluronic acid gel suitable for this area. Treatment is done with atraumatic needles and cannulas.
Considering that we often reach bone levels, surprisingly the treatment is painless because the technique used of anterograde injection of the gel containing lidocaine, an analgesic substance, greatly reduces the feeling of pain. In addition, an anaesthetic ointment is applied to the face 20 minutes before treatment.
