Understanding Volume Loss and Facial Hollowing

Facial volume loss is a natural part of aging. Over time, the body produces less collagen, facial fat pads thin and shift, and underlying bone density decreases. These changes often show first in areas like the cheeks, temples, under-eyes, and around the mouth, creating shadows, flattening, or a sunken appearance. Lifestyle factors such as stress, weight changes, sun exposure, and genetics can influence how quickly these changes occur. Rather than treating volume loss as an isolated concern, Auri Aesthetics evaluates facial balance as a whole—focusing on restoring support, softness, and harmony.

Common Areas Affected by Volume Loss

Volume depletion can appear differently from person to person, but commonly includes:

  • Hollow or flattened cheeks
  • Temple concavity
  • Under-eye hollowing or shadowing
  • Loss of midface support
  • Subtle sagging due to structural changes

A customized treatment plan is essential, as overcorrection can disrupt natural proportions.

Volume Restoration at Auri Aesthetics

Our approach to volume restoration prioritizes natural contour, longevity, and skin health. Treatment options may include:

Hyaluronic Acid Fillers

Used to restore soft volume and contour with precision, hyaluronic acid fillers help rehydrate and support areas such as the cheeks, under-eyes, chin, and jawline while maintaining natural movement.

Collagen-Stimulating Injectables

Options such as Sculptra or Radiesse work gradually to stimulate your body’s own collagen production, improving structural support and skin quality over time.

Regenerative Volume Solutions

PRF and BioGel offer a biologic approach to subtle fullness by supporting tissue regeneration and improving skin vitality, particularly in delicate areas.

Many patients benefit from a combination of treatments to achieve balanced, long-lasting results.
