Everyone is obsessed with jawlines and hairlines, but barely anyone talks about how fast midface bone loss can start. Your maxilla and zygomatic bones (cheek support) begin to slowly resorb even in your early 20s, especially if you have thin skin and low body fat. This is why some guys randomly look "flatter" or more sunken in their late 20s despite similar weight and skin quality.
Lifestyle factors that speed this up:
Once you lose that bony projection, fillers can’t fully replicate it — they only simulate volume, not true structure. Best prevention? Avoid extreme cutting phases, nasal breathing, proper sleep, jaw/posture work, and consider collagen support (like vitamin C + glycine).
Lifestyle factors that speed this up:
- Chronic mouth breathing (weakens midface support)
- Poor sleep (higher cortisol → collagen breakdown → soft tissue collapse)
- Smoking/vaping (vascular constriction starves bone tissue)
- Overaggressive weight cuts or low-fat diets (lowers deep fat pads too fast)
