Bellevue / Seattle Cheek Reshaping – Dr. Philip Young

As early as our mid-thirties, we may notice deepening smile lines, a certain sign that our cheek fat pads are beginning to descend. As we age, our bones diminish in size and we lose collagen and facial fat. For many people, this results in sunken or dropped cheeks which can lead to deeper lines around the mouth and a general tired look. If this is the case, you may want to schedule a consultation with the renowned Seattle cheek reshaping surgeon, Dr Young.

Circles of Prominence and Cheek Reshaping in Seattle / Bellevue

During his early training, Dr. Young noticed some less-than-ideal results from some very famous plastic surgeons while in Los Angeles. He wondered why this was happening to some of the best doctors. What he found was that our understanding of facial aesthetics, the goals that plastic surgeons strive for when they do surgery, was very outdated. In fact, even today we are using theories that were established in the 1400’s by Leonardo da Vinci. This prompted Dr. Young to find the answers and what he came up with was an industry changing theory on facial beauty called the Circles of Prominence. Applying the concepts of his theory on beauty, Dr. Young can restore youthful cheek contours and also reshape cheeks that are out of proportion to the face making you look younger in a natural way.

Depending on the unique needs of each check reshaping Seattle patient, Dr. Young will select the treatment that will lead to the best possible results, choosing from:

• Injectable dermal fillers, such as Restylane®, Perlane®, Radiesse®,
  Juvederm®, which last up to eighteen months or longer, depending on
  the product and your body’s metabolism.
• Permanent cheek implants produce a natural effect. Dr. Young will
  choose the shape and size to highlight a portion of the mid-face,
  emphasize or create high cheekbones, or fill a sunken area beneath
  the cheekbones. Aging, and exercise, especially jogging, can produce
  fat atrophy in the cheek resulting in a sunken, drawn appearance.
  Cheek implants can provide subtle or dramatic results, based on
  your facial structure and desire. Minimal incisions are needed and
  no dressings are typically required.
• A cheek lift, or mid-face lift, is a relatively simple procedure designed
  to lift a sagging cheek, returning it to its natural youthful position
  while also diminishing smile lines. Whether it’s an incision above the
  ear within the hair, under the eye, or within the mouth, Dr Young will
  tailor an approach that is specifically for you. His choice will depend
  on your needs and desires, along with his training and experience
  in performing over 1,200 face, neck, and eyelifts, and over 3,000 other
  cosmetic and reconstructive procedures.
• An even superior option to lifting the cheeks includes fat grafting / transfer / injections into the cheek area. When we age, we lose volume in the face and replacingthat volume is the most natural way of restoring the youth in the cheek and midfacialarea. Fat transferred into the cheeks and lower eyelid area can restore the lostvolume and help you look not just better but younger and better. The attractive elementof fat grafting is that often all you require are very small puncture holes to carry outfat injections, thus avoiding the longincisions required for traditional types of surgeries.These entry holes heal like little mosquitobites. With Dr Young's world famous theory ofbeauty, he can devise a plan that can make you look many years younger with fat injections.
