Volume Loss & Facial Definition
Restore and Define in Sunnyvale, California
Faces do not just line with age, they deflate. Cheeks flatten, definition softens along the jaw and chin, and the proportions that made a face look rested quietly shift. Restoring that lost structure often does more than chasing any single line, and it never has to change who you are.
What’s going on?
Volume loss is structural. The deep fat pads and collagen that once supported the cheeks and defined the jawline thin over time, and the skin above them settles onto less scaffolding. The face reads as tired or drawn even when you are neither, and no surface treatment can put the support back.
Restoring it is precision work, not filling for its own sake. Marie maps each treatment to your bone structure, replacing structure exactly where it has gone missing so everything above falls back into proportion. Done this way, the result reads as rested, never as done.

Radiesse facial contouring restores the framework. The calcium-based filler adds lift and definition along the cheeks, jawline, and chin the moment it is placed, then keeps working by stimulating your own collagen around it, with results lasting up to 24 months.
PRF gel restores the skin sitting over that framework. Concentrated from your own blood components, it stimulates new collagen and elastinto improve volume and texture naturally, a fully biocompatible complement to structural contouring.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will contouring make my face look bigger or fake?
No. The work is about balance, not size: structure goes back only where it has been lost, mapped to your own bone structure. The intended result is a lifted, sculpted, yet natural look that still reads as you.
How long does an appointment take?
Both Radiesse and PRF sessions run about 45 to 60 minutes, with typically 1 to 2 days of downtime after either.
When will I see results?
Radiesse results are immediate, and the collagen it stimulates keeps building over time. PRF results are progressive, developing over the weeks after treatment.
What exactly is PRF made from?
Your own blood. A small draw is processed to concentrate the platelet-rich fibrin and growth factors, which are then reintroduced where the skin needs regeneration. Nothing synthetic is involved.
How do I know if my concern is volume or sagging?
Often it is both, which is why the consultation starts with an assessment rather than a product. Marie evaluates where structure has thinned versus where skin has loosened, and builds your protocol accordingly.
