Cheek Augmentation: Enhancing Facial Contours

Cheek implants and augmentation procedures provide a strategic approach to adding fullness and definition to the upper face. Whether addressing age-related volume loss or naturally flat cheek structures, this procedure can significantly enhance facial symmetry and attractiveness.

What Are Cheek Implants?

Cheek implants are medical-grade silicone devices strategically placed in the upper cheek area to accentuate cheekbones. These permanent implants have established a proven safety record and can be removed if desired.

Benefits of Cheek Augmentation

• Provide definition to flat cheek structures
• Balance facial proportions
• Restore volume to hollow cheek areas
• Create a more sculpted facial profile
• Shift visual focus toward eyes

Alternative Augmentation Methods

Fat Grafting

Fat grafting involves harvesting excess fat through liposuction and strategically injecting it into cheek areas. This method offers natural-looking results using the patient's own tissue.

Dermal Fillers

Hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers provide temporary cheek volume enhancement, typically lasting six to twelve months. These injectable treatments offer a non-surgical alternative to implants.

Procedure Overview

Cheek implant surgery is an outpatient procedure performed under local or general anesthesia. Surgeons make discreet incisions inside the lip or eyelid to minimize visible scarring, then carefully place and secure implants to achieve desired facial contours.

Recovery Expectations

Patients can anticipate temporary swelling and bruising following the procedure. Most individuals resume normal activities within a few days, with complete healing occurring over several weeks.
