Cheek augmentation is a very popular treatment for patients of all ages. In younger patients, augmenting and enhancing the cheekbones with high density dermal filler can create sharper more defined contoured cheeks and more noticeable cheekbones giving a more youthful and attractive appearance. 

In older patients, midfacial volume loss is replaced which is often described as thinning and sagging of the cheeks causing lower facial jowling, lines and wrinkles. By replacing the lost mid facial fat in older patients with high density dermal filler, the cheeks are lifted as well as structures below such as lower face jowls and nasolabial lines and marionette lines. Therefore giving a “mini face lift” appearance without invasive surgery.

Typical areas of concern that cheek fillers can address:

  • Flat or contourless cheeks. 
  • Enhances high arched cheekbone look
  • Midfacial volume loss correction and lifting and reducing jowls
  • Giving clients a more youthful and attractive appearance.

Treatment

The procedure lasts 20-30 minutes. Topical local anaesthetic cream is applied to numb the area. As a result the discomfort of the procedure is minimised. We do all the massage during the procedure so you don’t have to.

Recovery

The majority of patients require no downtime following these procedures and can return to work and normal activities the same day. Some basic post procedure instructions apply. Swelling is very common and lasts 5-7 days post procedure.

Results

are seen immediately after treatment. Further improvements are seen over the next 7 days as the filler integrates and hydrates the area. Results can be expected to last upto 18 months.
