Cheek Filler

Cheek fillers restore volume and fullness to the mid-face or cheek area. They are composed of hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the body that helps keep skin hydrated and voluminous. As we age, our natural production of hyaluronic acid decreases, leading to loss of volume in the face, particularly in the cheeks. Cheek fillers are injected into the skin to counteract this effect, resulting in a more youthful, rejuvenated appearance.

During the treatment, hyaluronic acid-based fillers will be injected into the dermal layers of the skin. This substance attracts and retains water, which plumps up the skin and restores lost volume. It also stimulates collagen production, which helps to maintain skin elasticity and firmness.

The results of cheek fillers can often be seen immediately post-treatment. Although there may also be a little swelling and bruising initially, this should very quickly subside. After 1-2 weeks the filler will have settled into the cheeks, providing you with your optimal results.

Most cheek filler treatments tend to last between 6 to 18 months. Regular touch-up treatments can help maintain the effects for longer.

When applied by trained, experienced practitioners, such as ours, cheek fillers can create a very natural-looking more youthful appearance, enhancing your facial contours without changing your fundamental look. During your initial consultation with us, we’ll discuss how your results should look based on your individual features.

Cheek fillers, when administered correctly by a qualified clinician, are considered very safe and have been approved by the FDA. They have been widely used in cosmetic procedures for several years.
