If you’ve got a recessed maxilla but don’t wanna do Lefort this thread is for you. You can basically fraud your Recessed Maxilla
Most of the “sunken eye” / tired look that comes with bad midface projection isn’t just bone it’s also soft tissue deficiency under the eyes. When your maxilla is recessed, the under-eye/tear trough area looks hollow, shadowed, and aged.
Solution? Undereye fat transfer.
• Adds volume under the eyes, hides hollowness caused by recessed bone.
• Creates the illusion of forward projection, makes the midface look less caved in.
• Balances the transition from lower eyelid cheek, which is usually harsh in recessed cases.
Results in a healthier, “full” midface look that mimics what forward bone support would give.
Is it as powerful as a full Lefort? Of course not. But let’s be real most guys don’t have the balls, money, or recovery time for that. A simple fat transfer (or even filler if you don’t want permanent) can dramatically fix the sunken-eye look and make your face appear way more aesthetic.
If you’re recessed and cope every day looking at that hollow midface in the mirror, consider this. It’s the most practical fix 99% of guys can actually pull off.
Stop ignoring soft tissue. Sometimes faking projection with volume is enough.
