Volume Loss

What Is Volume Loss?

Volume loss is a natural process where the skin and underlying tissues lose their youthful fullness and elasticity over time. This often manifests as hollow or sunken areas, particularly in the cheeks, under the eyes, and around the lips, giving the face a tired or aged appearance. While commonly associated with aging, other factors such as lifestyle and genetics can also play a role. This gradual change in facial structure is a subtle yet significant shift that many seek to address to restore balance and a more refreshed look.

What Are the Causes of Volume Loss?

  • Aging: Natural decline in collagen and fat over time contributes to volume loss.
  • Weight Loss: Sudden or significant weight loss can reduce facial fullness.
  • Sun Damage: UV exposure accelerates the breakdown of collagen and elastin in the skin.
  • Genetics: Some people are predisposed to losing facial volume earlier in life.
  • Dehydration: Chronic dehydration can make the skin look hollow and aged.
  • Smoking: Smoking reduces blood flow and damages collagen, causing premature volume loss.
