Who can undergo cheek filler treatment?

Patients who experience age-related volume loss in the cheeks or who feel that their face looks tired may be candidates.

After the age of 30, the skin gradually becomes thinner and fat tissue in the cheeks may decrease. These changes can lead to facial sagging and hollowing.

Cheek filler is used to restore or enhance the prominence of the cheekbones in a balanced way and to improve facial harmony. Natural and defined beauty is an important goal in cheek aesthetics.

The filler material is injected under the skin in a treatment session that often lasts about 20–30 minutes. Patients can usually see an early effect and return to daily life shortly afterward.

What should be considered after cheek filler?

• Temporary swelling, redness, bruising, itching or sensitivity may occur.
• These effects are generally short lived.
• Sauna, Turkish bath and excessive heat exposure should be avoided for the period recommended by the physician.
• The final result is evaluated after the tissue settles.
