Anyone had fillers for jowls and dare to share before and after pics?

Hi,

Considering cheeks fillers to reduce jowls and nasal folds, but am so scared I won't look like me.

Has anyone had fillers for this reason and if so, would you mind posting a pic?

TIA

Place marking as I'm planning on getting this soon. Also I'd like a liquid brow lift.

Watching out of interest myself. Smile

Fembot123 · 02/03/2021 18:48

They’ll have pictures online surely?

Beforethetakingoftoastandt3a · 02/03/2021 18:50

Ha i have been considering this too after weeks and weeks of looking at myself all day every day on zoom

BeatricePrior · 02/03/2021 19:11

Watching with interest. Has anyone had a neck treatment?

RunawayBride2 · 02/03/2021 19:12

I'm watching too,
Always wanted this doing and really thinking about it after lockdown

I had cheek fillers for nasal folds. The doctor was pleased with the result, I didn't see much difference. At least it wasn't expensive.

I had this a couple of years ago. It gave a slight lift but not much. It did make my cheeks look better though and improved the look of my skin too.
The only thing that really lifted the folds and jowls were PDO threads, but they are obviously much more expensive and invasive than filler.
I had then age 50 too, if you're younger/less saggy the filler may do the job.

5128gap · 02/03/2021 20:22

Oh, and it needs to be strong thick filler injected very close to the bone with a cannula for decent lifting.

RunnerDown · 02/03/2021 20:39

I’ve had fillers. They were very natural so there wasn’t a huge difference. But I looked less tired and the lines down from the sides of my mouth were less pronounced , as were my jowls. I had them repeated the next year but havent had them done for a while because of lockdown. It will be the thing I book just after my hair appt

Not fillers but there is an amazing thread about a poster who had a mini facelift. She posted pics. The difference was incredible and enough to make me think I’d have one when the time came.

@Fembot123, well...yes, but they'll be mostly promo.

@5128gap, I'm 36 and it's not too noticeable, although seems to have kicked in over the past year or so. Subtle should be enough.

@Milomonster, yes, I saw that! Amazing results!

I had cheek fillers due to fat loss in my face after losing 8 stone. It’s ok, my dr was quite reserved in filling, I only had 1 vial for both cheeks, but one was a lot more sunken than the other, so one cheek has more filler in. It was a little hard and lumpy for a few days after on one side, but that subsided. I do still have hollowish cheeks, but it is improved and I didn’t want to run the risk of ‘pillow face’. I probably won’t get them redone when they dissolve though.

Fembot123 · 03/03/2021 12:52

I saw someone have this procedure on one of those ten years younger shows and it was really effective.

KatharinaRosalie · 03/03/2021 17:56

Folds were my main concern, this is just before and a couple of days after. A decent practitioner will not make you look unrecognisable - I looked the same, just more fresh and less saggy. Different lighting on photos but no make up or filter.

I can really see the difference Katharina did you have something in the mid face too?

movingmountainss · 03/03/2021 18:31

@KatharinaRosalie
If you don't mind telling, how much did you pay? You look great

KatharinaRosalie · 03/03/2021 18:42

I had 5ml put in, she did temples, cheeks and folds. I paid 1200 EUR but had it done abroad so that's probably not hugely helpful.

Loopyloututu2 · 03/03/2021 19:07

That looks really good Katharina - really subtle - I’m tempted!

How do you go about finding a good practitioner though? It could go so horribly wrong couldn’t it!

LaurieFairyCake · 03/03/2021 19:22

Oh I just posted on the lower face lift thread about getting cheek fillers (to scaffold face to lessen jowls). I paid £350 for 2 vials (2ml) at my dentist in London. It's given me higher cheekbones plus the under eye wrinkles are much less pronounced. Like Katerina I had more one side than the other - by the end she was putting in 0.1ml at a time to make it even.

I'm really happy with the result. Before and after below. (No make up, no filter) The after is me this morning with my morning retinol on so all greasy looking Grin

@KatharinaRosalie, that looks great. Subtle, but a definite difference.

@LaurieFairyCake, maybe it's just the photo, but I can't really see where the issue was in your before....

@KatharinaRosalie, that is amazing so subtle. I am so worried about things going wrong 😑

Was it just on the cheek bone? I can definitely see the difference.
LaurieFairyCake · 04/03/2021 10:06

Yes, just along the cheekbone - lifts the skin lower down
