Facial volume loss is a natural part of the ageing process, but it can significantly impact one’s appearance, leading to a tired, hollow, or sagging look. While this change is inevitable, advanced aesthetic treatments can restore youthful contours and improve overall facial balance. At Berkshire Aesthetics, we specialise in state-of-the-art solutions to address facial volume loss. This guide will delve into the causes of facial volume loss, its effects, and our innovative treatments to help you achieve rejuvenated, natural-looking results.
Facial volume loss occurs when the underlying structures of the face—fat, collagen, and bone—diminish over time. This loss contributes to:
Hollow cheeks
Sunken under-eye areas
Thinner lips
Sagging skin
Prominent nasolabial folds (smile lines)
Volume loss is most noticeable in the midface and lower face, where youthful plumpness gives way to flat or sunken areas.
As we age, our body produces less collagen and elastin—proteins essential for skin firmness and elasticity. Fat pads that provide volume also shrink and shift, causing the face to lose its youthful contours.
Your genetic makeup significantly affects how and when facial volume loss occurs. Some individuals may experience changes earlier due to inherited traits.
Smoking, poor diet, and inadequate hydration can accelerate collagen breakdown and contribute to premature volume loss.
Chronic UV exposure damages the skin’s underlying support structures, including collagen and elastin, leading to faster volume depletion.
Significant or rapid weight loss can reduce fat in the face, making volume loss more apparent.
Facial volume loss affects physical appearance and how others perceive you. Common effects include:
A more aged, tired appearance
Loss of youthful contours and definition
Increased visibility of wrinkles and fine lines
Imbalance in facial symmetry
While these changes are natural, they can impact self-confidence and how you feel about your appearance.
At Berkshire Aesthetics, we offer a variety of cutting-edge treatments to address facial volume loss. Each solution is tailored to your needs, ensuring natural-looking and long-lasting results.
Dermal fillers are one of the most effective treatments for restoring lost volume. These injectable treatments use hyaluronic acid—naturally found in the body—to plump and lift the skin.
How It Works:
Fillers are injected into specific face areas to restore volume, smooth lines, and enhance contours.
Results are immediate, with minimal downtime.
Benefits:
Restores youthful fullness to the cheeks, lips, and under-eye area
Softens nasolabial folds and marionette lines
Customisable to achieve natural results
Profhilo is an innovative injectable treatment designed to hydrate and tighten the skin, improving its overall texture and appearance.
How It Works:
Profhilo contains a high concentration of hyaluronic acid that spreads evenly under the skin, stimulating collagen and elastin production.
It enhances skin elasticity and hydration, providing a subtle lifting effect.
Benefits:
Improves skin firmness and tone
Reduces fine lines and wrinkles
It provides a refreshed and rejuvenated appearance
Sculptra is a unique injectable treatment that gradually restores facial volume by stimulating the skin’s natural collagen production.
How It Works:
Polylactic acid, the active ingredient in Sculptra, encourages the body to produce more collagen over time.
Results appear gradually, making it ideal for those seeking subtle, long-lasting improvements.
Benefits:
Long-lasting results (up to two years)
Natural restoration of facial volume
Enhances overall skin texture
Fat transfer involves using your body fat to restore lost facial volume. This minimally invasive procedure is a natural alternative to synthetic fillers.
How It Works:
Fat is harvested from another area of the body (e.g., abdomen or thighs) and purified before being injected into the face.
The procedure offers dual benefits: contouring the donor area and restoring facial volume.
Benefits:
Natural and biocompatible solution
Long-lasting results
Customisable to address specific concerns
Thread lifts are a minimally invasive treatment that uses dissolvable threads to lift and tighten sagging skin, improving facial contours.
How It Works:
Threads are inserted under the skin to lift and anchor sagging tissue.
The threads stimulate collagen production, enhancing the skin’s structure over time.
Benefits:
Immediate lifting effect
Stimulates natural collagen production
Minimal downtime
Ultherapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses ultrasound technology to lift and tighten the skin, improving facial contours and reducing sagging.
How It Works:
Focused ultrasound energy penetrates deep into the skin to stimulate collagen production.
Results develop gradually over 2-3 months.
Benefits:
Non-invasive with no downtime
Natural-looking results
Long-lasting improvements
