Case Study: Mid-Face Volume Restoration — Reviving Youthfulness and Confidence

This patient booked a general consultation at Medical Aesthetics 360° after a close friend remarked that she looked “a bit tired” and asked if she was unwell. Though she felt perfectly fine, the comment stayed with her — she noticed that her cheeks appeared flatter and more sunken, particularly beneath the cheekbones, creating shadows that made her look fatigued and less vibrant than she felt.

During her consultation with Dr Suzanna Yan Ning Luo (MED0001187471), a comprehensive facial assessment revealed submalar hollowing — a common sign of mid-face volume loss that can develop gradually with age or lifestyle factors. Dr Luo explained how restoring the natural volume and contours in this area not only softens fine lines and shadows, but also subtly lifts the lower face, bringing back a healthier and more energetic appearance.

A personalised treatment plan was designed to replenish lost volume using advanced volumising techniques performed with precision and artistry. The goal was not to change her features, but to restore balance, vitality, and confidence — keeping her authentic expression intact.

The procedure was performed by Dr Suzanna Yan Ning Luo, using refined placement and depth control to achieve a smooth, natural result.
Within days, the patient noticed that her reflection looked brighter and more rested. The previously sunken areas appeared softly filled, her skin looked smoother, and her overall expression more approachable and refreshed.

At her follow-up, she shared that friends kept commenting on how well she looked — yet no one could pinpoint why. “I just feel more like myself again,” she said with a smile.
