Cheek Enhancement using Dermal Fillers
As we age, our skin loses collagen and fat which changes the facial contour. The cheeks can become hollow, and skin can sag and wrinkle, which results in a drawn and aged appearance. Non-surgical cheek enhancement is a process where dermal fillers are used to improve the appearance and shape of the cheek, without the need for surgery or cheek implants.
Pillow face, chipmunk cheeks and piggy eyes (where the eyes nearly disappear during a smile, or worse, without a smile, which happens when too much dermal filler is injected into the cheek area) are words used to describe faces that have been overfilled with fillers.
Celebrities, such as singer Madonna and actresses Ashley Judd and Nicole Kidman are some of the most obvious examples of stars whose new, youthful glow seems to suggest they may have had fat or filler implants in their cheeks, causing the pillow face effect.
Increasing numbers of celebrities are now going for the plumped-up look, as opposed to the wind tunnel effect of a face-lift or the frozen Botox look. Since it was realised that lifting sag and filling wrinkles wasn’t everything, and that volumizing made faces look younger, certain celebrities seem to have gone to town with the volume! But it gets to the point where the face and cheeks look puffy and over-stuffed, hence the term pillow face. Which would suggest that restraint is vital!
Less is more, and patients should be really happy with the vast improvement fillers can achieve and be happy to just leave out that last little 10%. Over-filling is just not necessary.
At the Selston Cosmetic Clinic we have had great success with using fillers. We recommend Restylane range and Radiesse for cheek bone enhancement. It restores lost facial volume in the cheeks, cheekbones and chin. It was developed to be smoother than other hyaluronic acid facial volumizers, making it easier to inject during the filler treatment and resulting in a smooth, natural look and feel.
As we age our upper cheeks become flatter and saggy, and correction of these with dermal fillers gives you a 'cheek lift'. This treatment plumps up the apples of the cheeks and sculpts the cheek bones. This instantly gives your face a more youthful appearance. Cheek enhancements are one of the most common treatments requested at our clinic and we have numerous clients returning for repeat treatments.
