One side of my face looks really skeletal - yep, only one side. I have a prominent cheekbone, really gaunt and hollow cheek and prejowl drooping. But the other side is fine, it's more softer/round. I can't work out what has happened. All I can think is muscle atrophy?
Has anyone had that happen?
Background: I haven't had jaw surgery yet, only ortho + extractions as a teen, then wisdom teeth removal + now more ortho.
Take a look at this girl on realself who had botox in her masseters. One side of my face has the same shape as in her after photo.

I'll start chewing more on that side, in hopes it'll build up. (But I already have worn down jaw joints so it's probably not the greatest of plans!!). I don't think it could be due to age-related fat loss - fat loss would happen more symmetrical, right?
What do you think could help? Fat grafting, fillers?
Can any type of jaw surgery improve hollowness under the cheekbone?
