Cheek fillers are dermal fillers, typically made from hyaluronic acid, that are injected into the cheek area to restore lost volume and improve facial contours.
If you fancy an alternative acid filler, they can be made from poly-L-lactic acid. It all depends on the type of filler treatment you prefer, or that is offered at the clinic you choose for the treatment.
Purpose of Cheek Fillers
The main purpose of these filler injection treatments is to enhance the cheekbone area, improve facial shape, and create a more balanced, youthful appearance.
How the Cheek Filler Procedure Works
The cheek filler treatment procedure is carried out using a fine needle or cannula.
Usually your aesthetic practitioner will apply a topical numbing cream to the treatment area before the injection so that you don’t feel pain.
As soon as you have lost feeling in your cheek, we are good to go!
A cheek filler injection is carefully and expertly administered to add volume, smooth lines and wrinkles, and improve overall facial anatomy.
The treatment is quick, and most patients return to normal activities soon after.
What Can Cheek Fillers Treat?
Cheek filler treatment can help with a range of facial concerns, including:
- Volume loss
- Sagging skin
- Nasolabial folds
- Smile lines
- Uneven facial contours
- Flat cheek area
- Skin texture concerns and mild skin discolouration
By restoring cheek volume, fillers help create a lifted look and improve the appearance of deeper lines. One that you will be incredibly satisfied with.
Are Cheek Fillers Safe?
A filler injected by a trained specialist is very safe, especially when using cheek injections with FDA-approved dermal filler products.
However, as with all injectable treatments, there are potential risks such as swelling or an allergic reaction.
To avoid the latter, all responsible clinics will complete the necessary checks to ensure a client isn’t allergic to the filler material.
This means that a thorough initial consultation is a must to assess your medical history, including any bleeding disorders or use of blood-thinning medications, to ensure suitability.
How Much Filler Do You Need?
There is no one answer to this question. A major factor in determining how much filler is required depends on your face shape and the level of volume loss.
It is important that you and your practitioner chat about whether or not you require multiple sessions to achieve the desired results, especially if there is significant lost volume.
Aftercare and Results
After your filler injection treatment, you may be advised to avoid drinking alcohol and strenuous exercise for a short period. Mild swelling at the injection site is normal.
Results are visible quickly, with continued improvement as collagen and elastin production are stimulated. The outcome is a natural-looking enhancement that restores volume and definition.
Cheek Fillers vs Other Treatments
Cheek fillers are a popular alternative to surgical procedures such as cheek implants. They offer a less invasive way to achieve cheek enhancement with minimal downtime, which makes it a great option for those who don’t want plastic surgery.
They can also be combined with other dermal fillers or cosmetic procedures as part of a personalised treatment plan.
