The natural aging process of the face leads to a loss of volume caused by the resorption of subcutaneous tissue. Over the years, not only the superficial and deep fat pads of the face are resorbed, but also the bone tissue. All these tissue changes lead to a gradual mobilization of the skin and soft tissues in a postero-anterior direction. Thus, a face that has a triangular shape when young gradually takes on a rectangular shape.
