Cheek augmentation is a very popular treatment for patients of all ages. It can achieve two major outcomes in a face. Firstly 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.

 

The second main outcome that can be achieved with cheek augmentation treatment is to replace mid-facial volume loss, which is often described by older patients as thinning and sagging of the cheeks causing lower facial jowling, lines and winkles. 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.
