What Is CHEEK filler?

Cheek fillers are injectable gels, most commonly made of dermal fillers, like Restylane, a popular brand known for its hyaluronic acid (HA) content. HA is a substance naturally found in your skin that plumps and hydrates. It attracts and binds water molecules, adding volume and definition to your cheeks. As we age, our natural production of HA diminishes, leading to sagging skin and a loss of youthful fullness. Cheek fillers replace this lost HA, effectively addressing hollowness and creating a more lifted and sculpted appearance. Depending on your specific goals, our experienced injectors can choose from a variety of dermal fillers to achieve the optimal result, whether it's enhancing cheekbones, smoothing out wrinkles, or providing overall facial rejuvenation.

THE BENEFITS OF CHEEK FILLER

Cheek fillers offer a range of benefits that go beyond simply adding volume. By strategically injecting dermal fillers, our experts can achieve a more balanced and harmonious facial appearance.

  • Lifting and Defining Cheekbones: As we age, cheeks lose volume, leading to a flattened appearance. Cheek fillers restore fullness and definition to the cheekbones, creating a lifted and sculpted look.

  • Smoothing Nasolabial Folds: The lines running from the nose to the corners of the mouth (nasolabial folds) often deepen with age due to volume loss in the cheeks. Cheek fillers can subtly plump this area, minimizing the appearance of these folds for a smoother, more youthful appearance.

  • Overall Facial Balancing: By restoring volume to the cheeks, dermal fillers can create a more balanced and proportional look. This can improve the definition of the jawline, enhance the appearance of the chin, and even make the eyes appear brighter.

Cheek Filler Injection Areas

Cheek fillers offer a versatile approach to facial rejuvenation. By strategically injecting dermal fillers like Restylane into specific areas of the cheek, our expert injectors can achieve a variety of desired outcomes. Here's a closer look at the key injection areas for cheek fillers:

  • Mid-Cheek: This area encompasses the central portion of the cheek, directly below the cheekbone. Filling this region effectively addresses volume loss and hollowness, creating a lifted and youthful appearance.

  • Lateral Cheek: This area refers to the outer portion of the cheek, extending towards the jawline and the front of the ear. Injections here target volume loss that can contribute to a flattened appearance. Filling the lateral cheek can enhance facial definition and create a more sculpted look.

  • Cheekbones: This area defines the upper structure of the cheek. Strategic filler placement here can elevate and define the cheekbones, adding a sharper contour and improving overall facial balance.

  • Tear Troughs: While not technically part of the cheek, the tear trough, the indented area below the eye, can sometimes be subtly addressed with cheek fillers. In some cases, filler can be used to indirectly improve the appearance of tear troughs by adding volume to the under-eye area and providing a smoother transition.

Cheek Filler Results Before and After in Austin by Maui Med Spa

During a cheek filler treatment, we'll first discuss your desired outcome and assess your facial anatomy. Then, we'll recommend the most suitable filler type for your needs. The procedure itself involves a topical anesthetic to minimize discomfort, followed by strategic injections of the filler into specific areas of the cheek using a thin needle. Downtime is minimal, and any temporary side effects like swelling, bruising, or redness typically resolve within a few days.

Do cheek fillers change your smile?

Cheek fillers typically shouldn't directly affect your smile. However, in some cases, if fillers are strategically placed near the smile lines (nasolabial folds), they can indirectly soften their appearance, making your smile appear smoother. It's important to discuss your desired outcome with your injector to ensure the filler placement complements your natural smile.

How long do cheek fillers last in the cheeks?

The longevity of your cheek fillers can vary depending on several factors. These include the type of filler used, the amount injected, your body's metabolism, and even lifestyle factors like smoking and sun exposure. Our experienced injectors at Maui Med Spa will consider these factors during your consultation to recommend the most suitable option for you, maximizing the longevity of your results.

Does Cheek Filler Look Natural?
