CHEEK AUGMENTATION WITH FACIAL FILLERS
Whether due to the effects of aging, genetics or lifestyle, volume loss in the cheek area is a very common concern. While often overlooked due to more prominent signs of aging around the eyes or forehead, well-defined, full cheeks are an important component of a youthful appearance. Non-surgical cheek and midface augmentation is available at The Institute of Aesthetic Medicine.
WHAT DO CHEEK FILLERS TREAT?
Actual patient. Results may vary.
When used in the mid-face and cheek areas, fillers improve an array of concerns that result from aging, genetics and even trauma.
These include:
- Nasolabial folds – The lines that look like parentheses on the sides of the mouth
- Marionette lines – The vertical lines that run from the mouth down to the chin
- Hollow or sunken cheeks – Deflated cheek appearance
- Poor cheekbone definition – Flattened appearance and facial contours
- Asymmetrical or uneven appearance due to facial trauma
HOW DO FACIAL/DERMAL CHEEK FILLERS WORK?
Injectable fillers restore volume to the cheeks by physically filling-in sunken or hollow areas. They plump the skin, add definition and smooth the overall appearance of your face. Using fillers for cheek augmentation also helps improve the appearance of deep wrinkles, and these treatments are often combined with botulinum toxin injections for more comprehensive facial rejuvenation. Fillers can produce immediate results with minimal recovery time, which offers a tremendous advantage over traditional surgery.*
WHAT ARE CHEEK FILLERS AND WHAT TYPES ARE USED AT THE AESTHETIC INSTITUE OF AESTHETIC MEDICINE?
There are a variety of FDA-approved fillers that can be used to help restore volume to the cheeks without the risks and recovery associated with traditional cheek implants and surgery.
These hyaluronic acid fillers are designed to add volume, definition to the cheeks and improve the appearance of deeper lines and nasolabial folds. At The Institute of Aesthetic Medicine, Dr. Steven Fagien and our cosmetic enhancement surgeons use a variety of cheek dermal fillers such as, Juvéderm Voluma® XC and Restylane® Lyft to cosmetically enhance cheeks.
Juvéderm Voluma® XC is the first FDA-approved filler to temporarily correct age-related volume loss in the cheeks. Juvéderm Voluma® XC is effective in correcting what is called “midface volume loss.” 
Restylane® Lyft is a FDA-approved filler used to correct volume loss and treat wrinkles in the face. Restylane® Lyft produces natural-looking volume to produce a more youthful appearance.
Both of these excellent facial fillers are comprised of a substance that is naturally produced by the body, these injectable fillers have a proven safety record and offer results that can last for up to 18 months or more.*
Dr. Fagien and the physicians of the Institute of Aesthetic Medicine will tailor the precise placement of the filler to address each patient’s unique anatomy, as well as the desired outcomes.
Today, injectable fillers are the preferred method for correcting age-related midface/ cheek concerns safely. In many cases, results are instantaneous. Temporary injectable fillers have largely replaced the need for cheek implants for cosmetic uses.
