When we're young, our faces have a smooth, full look thanks to well-defined fat pads and tight connective tissue. But as we age, those structures start to change, leading to sags, bags and changes in facial shape. Facial aging doesn't happen all at once. It's a gradual process that starts as early as your 20s. At first, the face can look more sculpted and angular, but over time, fat volume loss,  drooping, and eventually muscle and bone changes become more noticeable. Restoring a youthful look often means going beyond just the skin. It takes a thoughtful approach that can include restoring lost volume, repositioning fat and connective tissue, and tightening the skin. Drs. Bass and Edinger break down how facial aging really works, from the inside out, and why understanding these changes is key to treating them effectively.
