Restore volume for a more youtful appearnece with Freyja Medical.
What Causes Facial Volume Loss?
Facial volume loss occurs naturally as collagen and elastin production decreases, affecting skin elasticity and firmness.
Fat pads diminish over time, particularly due to ageing, causing hollowing in areas such as the cheeks, temples, and under the eyes.
Environmental factors like sun exposure accelerate these changes, leading to premature ageing and exacerbating volume loss.
Understanding these processes is crucial for developing effective skincare and cosmetic solutions to restore facial volume and rejuvenate appearance.

Aesthetic Consultation
At Freyja Medical, our aesthetic consultations for facial volume loss are led by our expert practitioners who tailor personalised treatment plans to address your specific concerns.
We understand that every individual is unique, so we take the time to listen to your needs and goals before recommending the most suitable options.
Whether you’re considering dermal fillers, Sculptra or a thread lift we’re here to guide you through the process, ensuring you feel informed and confident in your choices.
Dermal Fillers
Dermal fillers are a popular solution for restoring facial volume lost with age.
These fillers, typically containing hyaluronic acid or similar materials, are injected into specific areas like the cheeks and temples to replenish lost volume and smooth wrinkles.
Results are immediate and natural-looking, lasting from several months to over a year, depending on the product used.
This non-surgical treatment effectively rejuvenates facial contours and reduces signs of ageing with minimal downtime.
Sculptra
Sculptra is an injectable treatment that addresses facial volume loss by stimulating collagen production.
Unlike traditional fillers, Sculptra works gradually with poly-L-lactic acid, promoting natural collagen regeneration.
This approach provides long-lasting results, up to two years, enhancing facial contours such as the cheeks, temples, and jawline while reducing wrinkles and folds for a more youthful appearance.
Thread Lift
A thread lift is a non-surgical procedure that lifts and tightens sagging skin to address facial volume loss.
Dissolvable threads are strategically placed under the skin to support areas that have lost firmness due to ageing. This stimulates collagen production for ongoing skin rejuvenation.
The treatment offers immediate results with minimal downtime, focusing on areas like the cheeks, jowls, and brows to subtly enhance facial contours and restore a youthful appearance.
What causes facial volume loss?
Facial volume loss can be attributed to several factors, primarily related to the natural aging process and environmental influences. Here are the key causes:
- Ageing: As we age, there is a gradual loss of fat, collagen, and elastin in the skin. Fat pads that provide youthful volume begin to diminish, leading to hollowed areas and sagging.
- Bone Resorption: Bone density decreases with age, particularly in the facial bones. This reduction in bone mass can contribute to changes in facial structure and volume loss.
- Loss of Collagen and Elastin: Collagen and elastin fibers in the skin decrease over time, causing skin to become less firm and elastic. This contributes to sagging and volume loss.
- Sun Damage: UV radiation from the sun accelerates the breakdown of collagen and elastin in the skin, leading to premature ageing and loss of facial volume.
- Lifestyle Factors: Smoking, poor nutrition, and lack of skincare can also accelerate the ageing process and contribute to facial volume loss.
- Genetics: Genetic factors can influence how quickly and to what extent facial volume loss occurs.
- Medical Conditions: Certain medical conditions or medications can affect facial volume, such as autoimmune diseases or treatments that cause collagen loss.
Facial volume loss typically results in areas of the face appearing hollow, sunken, or deflated. Treatment options to restore facial volume include dermal fillers, Sculptra and thread lifts.
