Enhance The Appearance

How is cheek augmentation performed?

There are surgical and non-surgical methods that can effectively increase and enhance the appearance of the cheeks. All involve the insertion of some type of volumizer. Dermal fillers, such as Juvederm, Radiesse, Restylane, and Sculptra, can be injected into the cheeks. In some cases, the stimulation of new collagen growth can produce long-lasting results. Cheek implants can be silicone, hydroxyapatite, or Gore-Tex based and come in a variety of shapes and sizes. Your surgeon, makes a small incision in the upper lip or lower eyelid and places the cheek implant under the facial tissue. Fat transfer to cheeks involves removing fat from another part of the body and injecting it into the cheek. This restores some of the fat that was lost in the natural processes of aging.

See The Best Results

What happens after cheek augmentation?

Your recovery and results will depend on which type of cheek augmentation technique used. Dermal fillers cause no downtime and any swelling or redness soon passes. Results typically last between 6-14 months and many Washington DC cheek implant patients pursue repeat treatments to maintain their results. Cheek implant patients may have mild bruising and swelling post operatively and will be cautioned to avoid certain foods in the immediate post operative period while their incisions heal.
