Lost facial volume I had as a kid, look way different to what I used to. What does it mean in terms of surgeries?

[LebenistneHure]

Basically I used to have a rounder face as a kid, and obviously losing facial fat is something that happens with age. It feels that my face deflated and drooped down, so instead of having facial fat covering my non-existing facial features, now that it has all descended down, I look older and mature, but face looks way longer than it used to. What I'm asking is, the people who also lose their facial fat when they mature, but don't have their face completely change, was it the bone structure? I somehow doubt I would need a face lift at my age (28), even though stretching and lifting my skin across my face to resemble what I used to look like a kid does the job, somehow I doubt this is the solution.

It’s hard to give you any reasonable advice without seeing some pictures

A face lift is only going to make you look weird, not younger. Facial volume needs to be restored, but with your altered (older) bone structure, this too would look somewhat weird.

Over nigga the facial volume reaper knocked on your door you might kys as well life's over

Not much you can do just look into fat grafts and fillers. I've read about older people taking creatine to cause water retention in their faces as that would resemble the loss volume. So bloat yourself jfl

Also actually gaining fat might restore some if it, how old are you btw ?
