Sagging cheek

Hello. What is the best treatment for sagging cheek due to a missing tooth. Already got a tooth implant to fill the missing tooth but would like my cheek to go back to normal. Thank you!

Procedure: Dermal Fillers
Location: Philadelphia, PA

If you already replaced the tooth and it’s not better, then it’s more than just the tooth causing your sagging cheeks. You might benefit from fillers, or depending upon the severity of your problem, you might need surgery, perhaps a facelift. I recommend you consult with a board certified plastic surgeon to express your concerns and learn based upon your anatomy what your treatment options are. Best wishes

Most likely the best treatment would be careful placement of a dermal filler like voluma. Hope this helps.
