Cheek Augmentation
Plump Up Your Cherubic Cheeks
Chubby cheeks have long been associated with youthfulness and beauty, and for good reason! But if your cheeks have lost their plumpness over time, don’t worry — cheek augmentation is a safe and effective solution. While surgical options can be costly and come with risks like permanent scarring, our non-surgical cheek augmentation procedures using dermal fillers are a much easier and less invasive option. With a few delicate injections, we can plump up sunken cheeks and restore youthful facial contours.
Cheek Augmentation Treats:
- Sunken or hollow cheeks that can make you look older or tired
- Asymmetrical cheeks that may be affecting the balance of your face
- Age-related loss of midface volume
- A lack of definition or contouring in the cheek area
- Nasolabial folds, the lines that extend from the nose to the mouth
How Cheek Augmentation Works
Cheek augmentation uses injectable dermal fillers to add volume to the cheeks. We use hyaluronic acid-based fillers designed to mimic the natural hyaluronic acid found in the body. Hyaluronic acid is a sugar molecule that attracts and retains water, which helps to plump and hydrate the skin. By injecting the filler into specific areas of the cheeks, our skilled practitioners can sculpt and contour the cheeks to create a more lifted appearance.
Advantages of Cheek Augmentation:
- Quick treatment that typically takes less than 15 minutes to complete
- No downtime required, allowing you to return to work or other activities immediately
- Non-invasive and low-risk, with no risk of infection or scarring
- Customizable treatment tailored to your specific aesthetic goals
- Sculpts the cheeks in the shape and size you desire
- Effective solution for those who experience sudden weight loss
We Offer These Cheek Fillers:
- Juvéderm Voluma XC: One of the most effective and trusted cheek fillers, Voluma XC is formulated to lift and shape the cheeks. It contains lidocaine to minimize discomfort during the injection process and is perfect for deep hollows in the cheeks that require extensive filling.
- Restylane Lyft: Developed by Q-Med, Restylane Lyft is a hyaluronic dermal filler that adds volume to the cheeks while also smoothing the skin in the mid-face region. It is more moldable than Voluma XC, making it a better choice for those seeking minor cheek contouring.
- Sculptra: This dermal filler is unique in that it is made from poly-l-lactic acid, which is highly effective in filling in lines and creases that form on the cheeks. Sculptra provides a two-in-one solution for cheek enhancement and wrinkle correction.
Your Cheek Augmentation Session
When you visit our medspa for cheek enhancement, our lead injector, Danielle Oyasu, will thoroughly evaluate your aesthetic needs. She will identify the areas of the cheeks that require filling, lifting, and sculpting and choose a particular dermal filler based on your unique needs.
To ensure your comfort, she will numb your cheeks. With gentle precision, she will inject small quantities of filler into your cheeks to give you the shape you desire. The entire procedure typically takes less than 20 minutes.
Potential Side Effects of Cheek Augmentation:
- Mild swelling or bruising at the injection site
- Redness or tenderness in the treated area
- Temporary numbness or tingling sensations
- Lumpiness or unevenness in the cheek area
- In rare cases, infection or allergic reaction
Social or Professional Downtime?
It’s normal to experience some soreness in the cheek area due to the injections. You may also notice minor bruising, tenderness, or inflammation, but these side effects subside within a few hours. To ensure optimal results, it’s important not to touch your cheeks or make any excessive facial movements for the first 24 hours. This will allow the filler to settle in place and prevent it from migrating to a new location. However, there’s no downtime, and you can resume normal activities immediately.
Results: Onset & Longevity
The results of cheek augmentation using dermal fillers typically last between 1 year (Restylane Lyft) and 2 years (Juvéderm Voluma XC & Sculptra), after which you may want to consider getting another injection to maintain your youthful, plump cheeks.
