Hi, which would be more efficient in augmenting my cheekbones? I find my face to be too flat and would like to create more depth.

Bellafill vs. Sculptra
Hi and thank you for your question! Bellafill and Sculptra (alongside with Radiesse to some extent) are the main FDA-approved stimulatory fillers currently available in the US. You could see similar results with either treatments in the long run, but in the short-term, the results with Bellafill tend to be more noticeable, simply because it does provide some immediate Volumizing effect, while for Sculptra, the Volumizing effect is seen after a few months and as body’s reaction to the filler particles in form of new collagen builds up. Please note that individual result may vary. I use both fillers on regular basis and have seen great results with either one. I hope it helps and good luck!
