Cheek fillers are a suitable cosmetic treatment option for patients who desire to recoup firm looking skin and balanced, contoured cheekbones.
Cheekbone structure is deceptively unique in each individual person and, in addition to defining the separation between the middle and upper thirds of the face, they facilitate expression. Therefore, the more defined and balanced the cheekbones are, the more expressive and appealing a face becomes.
As such, even though the procedure to augment or contour the cheeks by using dermal fillers is fairly straightforward, it is imperative that patients rely on aesthetic practitioners with experience, since a botched job can severely affect the overall look of the face. Here at Esteem Aesthetics, we pride ourselves on our expertise in all types of advanced facial cosmetic injectables.
Here is our brief guide to answer any questions you might have about Cheek Augmentation, Cheek Contouring, and Cheek Fillers.
How Do Cheek Fillers Work?
Cheek augmentation with hyaluronic acid injectables is a straightforward, outpatient procedure that is done in one session.
The procedure involves the following steps and techniques:
The skin is cleansed very thoroughly using a variety of cleansing creams.
The cheekbone area is numbed with the aid of an anesthetic cream to minimise pain and discomfort.
The hyaluronic injectables are introduced to the skin through a series of superficial microinjections on each side of the face.
Cheekbones are contoured to achieve a balanced, natural look.
Cheek Fillers Restore youth
Here at Esteem Aesthetics, we use a high-density premium hyaluronic acid that is injected into the skin to fill in the depressed areas and return a contoured line to accentuate the upper and middle thirds of the face, thus restoring a youthful appearance.
The use of a high-density filler allows the cheekbones to be reshaped and refined according to the needs of each patient in order to achieve a more harmonious and attractive look.
What to Expect After Getting Cheek Fillers?
Because of the simplicity of the procedure, there is no need for specific guidelines regarding the post-procedure period of healing. However, a few general tips can go a long way to ensuring better and longer-lasting results.
Patients should wait a few hours before applying makeup.
The site of each microinjection might itch for a while, but scratching should be avoided to decrease the risk of infection.
The treated areas may not be washed until a time specified by your doctor.
Patients should avoid direct exposure to sunlight and UV rays for at least a couple of days following the procedure.
Patients should expect at least mild swelling and some discomfort for a few days after the procedure is performed.
