Dropping the weight rapidly makes your skin sag, that could be one of the reasons. Or maybe that fluffy round cheeks just plain look younger than hollows.

A plump face always looks younger, it stretches out your skin and makes wrinkles less obvious.

Children (are supposed to) have higher proportional fat reserves than adults as a general rule, in humans the fat is partially stored in the face.
