Cheek Filler

What is Cheek Filler?

Cheek filler is a non-surgical cosmetic treatment designed to enhance the volume and contour of the cheeks. By injecting a gel-like substance, typically hyaluronic acid, into the cheeks, it helps to restore youthful plumpness and improve facial symmetry. This procedure is popular for its ability to deliver immediate results with minimal downtime, making it an attractive option for those seeking a refreshed appearance without the need for invasive surgery.

What are Other Names for Cheek Filler?

Cheek filler is commonly known by other names such as dermal filler, facial filler, or volumising filler. These terms refer to the same general procedure, where various injectable substances are used to add volume and definition to the cheeks. The choice of terminology often depends on the specific type of filler used or the context in which the treatment is discussed.

How Does Cheek Filler Work?

Cheek filler works by injecting a specialised gel into the cheek area, which then integrates with the skin to provide immediate volume and lift. The most common type of filler is based on hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally found in the body that attracts and retains moisture. This process helps to smooth out wrinkles, enhance cheek contours, and restore a youthful appearance, with results that can last from six months to over a year depending on the type of filler used.

PREPARATION & AFTERCARE
Cheek Filler Preparation Advice
Before receiving cheek filler, it's important to avoid blood-thinning medications and supplements, such as aspirin and fish oil, to minimise the risk of bruising. Arriving at your appointment with a clean face, free of makeup, ensures the procedure can be performed smoothly and safely. Additionally, it's advisable to avoid alcohol and strenuous exercise for 24 hours before the treatment to help reduce swelling and promote optimal results.
Cheek Filler Aftercare Advice
After getting cheek filler, it's essential to avoid touching or massaging the treated area for at least 24 hours to prevent displacing the filler. Applying ice packs can help manage any swelling or bruising that may occur, and it's best to stay upright for a few hours post-procedure to encourage proper settling of the filler. Avoiding intense physical activity and excessive sun exposure for a few days can also contribute to better outcomes and faster recovery.

Who is a Good Candidate for Cheek Filler

A good candidate for cheek filler is generally someone who seeks to enhance the volume and contour of their cheeks due to natural ageing or facial volume loss. Ideal candidates are typically in good overall health, have realistic expectations, and are looking for a non-surgical option to rejuvenate their appearance. Those with specific allergies or certain medical conditions should discuss their suitability with a medical professional to ensure the treatment aligns with their health needs.

Cheek Filler - Alternative Treatments

Alternative treatments to cheek filler include cheek implants, which provide a more permanent solution but involve surgical procedures, and fat transfer, where your own fat is used to enhance cheek volume. Other options such as thread lifts can also offer a lift and contour to the cheeks without the need for fillers. Each treatment has its own benefits and considerations, so it’s important to discuss these alternatives with your practitioner to choose the best approach for your goals and lifestyle.
