Cheek Enhancement

WHO CAN BENEFIT FROM CHEEK ENHANCEMENT

Cheek enhancement is an excellent option for individuals who wish to address the following concerns:

• Loss of Volume: As we age, the natural fat pads in our cheeks may diminish, resulting in a sunken or flat appearance. Cheek Enhancement can restore lost volume, bringing back youthful contours.
• Lack of Definition: Some individuals may have genetically flatter or less defined cheeks. Cheek Enhancement can help enhance facial symmetry and define the cheekbones.
• Signs of Aging: Fine lines and wrinkles can develop around the cheeks as a result of collagen depletion. Cheek fillers can help smooth out these lines, rejuvenating the overall facial appearance.
• Facial Imbalance: Those with asymmetrical cheeks or facial proportions can benefit from Cheek Enhancement to achieve a more balanced and harmonious look.

HOW CHEEK ENHANCEMENT TREATMENTS WORK

Cheek enhancement uses FDA-approved “dermal fillers” to reduce sagging skin and provide volume. The most common type of fillers used for cheek augmentation are hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers.

Here at 4Ever Young Des Moines, IA, we offer the following brands of dermal fillers to suit your individual needs:

• Juvederm Voluma: Juvederm Voluma is specifically designed to add volume to the cheeks and midface region. It provides a smooth and long-lasting lift to the cheeks, helping to restore youthful contours.
• Restylane Lyft: Restylane Lyft is FDA-approved for cheek augmentation and the correction of age-related midface volume loss. It is also used to enhance the contours of the cheeks and improve facial symmetry.
• Sculptra: Unlike traditional HA fillers, Sculptra is a poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) filler. It stimulates the production of collagen, which gradually helps restore volume to the cheeks over time. The results with Sculptra are not immediate but provide a natural and long-lasting enhancement.

SIGNS & SYMPTOMS THAT MEAN YOU COULD REQUIRE CHEEK ENHANCEMENT

Cheek enhancement or augmentation is ideal for anyone who is self-conscious about their cheeks, jowls, or jawline or is otherwise dissatisfied with their appearance due to age-related volume loss, such as flattened or hollowed cheeks.

Generally speaking, you are a good candidate for cheek enhancement if you:

• Have good overall health: Like any cosmetic procedure, cheek augmentation with dermal fillers is best suited for individuals with good general health. Pre-existing medical conditions or ongoing health concerns may need to be considered before undergoing the treatment.
• Prefer a non-surgical approach: Cheek augmentation with dermal fillers offers a non-invasive alternative to surgical cheek implants. This appeals to individuals who wish to avoid the risks and downtime associated with surgery.
• Have sufficient facial bone structure: The best candidates for cheek augmentation have a foundation of underlying bone structure that can support the added volume. The procedure is more likely to yield natural-looking results in individuals with adequate bone structure.
• Are not pregnant or breastfeeding: Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals should wait until they are no longer pregnant or nursing before considering any cosmetic procedures, including cheek augmentation.

EXPECTED RESULTS FROM YOUR CHEEK ENHANCEMENT

Cheek enhancement is an exceptionally safe and straightforward procedure. Following your consultation and examination, the doctor and technician will pinpoint the exact locations on your cheeks where the dermal fillers will be administered. These markings are tailored to the patient’s facial structure and desired procedural outcome.

Using a fine needle or a blunt-tipped cannula, the dermal filler is injected into the predesignated areas of the cheeks. The doctor may employ a specific technique to ensure uniform distribution and precise filler placement. After each injection, they might gently massage the treated area to distribute the filler evenly and achieve the desired contour. The doctor will assess the results throughout the process to ensure symmetry and proper augmentation.

Post-injection, you might notice some redness, swelling, or minor bruising at the injection sites. This is typical and generally subsides within a few days. We will provide you with comprehensive post-treatment instructions and aftercare advice to manage any discomfort and optimize the healing process.
