Dermal fillers are one of the most significant advances in aesthetic medicine because they allow us to restore facial volume in a very controlled way, with a minimally invasive procedure. Loss of volume from the cheek is one of the most significant signs of ageing on the face and correcting it is often the first step of most rejuvenation treatment plans. The examples here illustrate the impact of cheek volume alone. The examples below show what can be achieved when we combine cheek volume with volume restoration elsewhere on the face.

How Does It Work?
Example of combining cheek filler with other areas for a more comprehensive result as part of a volumetric facelift..
A powerful way to restore facial volume without surgery
When performed properly, the injection of dermal fillers to the cheek area has the power to transform the face by restoring the younger, healthier shape and contour it once had. These results are virtually undetectable as the overlying skin adapts to the added definition to enhance the overall face shape and give it a more youthful appearance.
Injecting dermal fillers into the cheeks is one of the best ways to restore natural volume to your cheekbones.

How Do Cheek Filler Treatments Work?
The goal is never to change the face; the goal is to restore and enhance it.
We used to think of the fatty layer beneath the skin as a single unit, but new research has enlightened our understanding of the anatomy of facial fat. These new findings show us that the fat actually exists in a number of distinct compartments under the skin, each separated by a fibrous membrane that is ageing in a different way. Therefore, restoring volume and definition to the face requires much more than simply fattening the face up diffusely. To add volume and add definition that achieves the most natural look, the plumping effect of the dermal filler treatment will need to be executed at key positions in the cheek relating to the underlying anatomy and cheekbones.
This is where the unique experience of the McKeown Medical team comes in — we use our extensive knowledge and experience to create bespoke treatment plans that preserve your facial character, whilst diminishing the signs of ageing.
Typically we will treat multiple parts of the cheek in combination, with results being visible immediately although improving over the first two weeks as the filler material integrates with your tissue.

What to Expect
A patient before and after treatment at McKeown Medical.
What to Expect from your Cheek Augmentation
For cheek augmentation, we normally use Juvéderm™ VOLUMA™ or Restylane DEFYNE because of their excellent gel characteristics, and long lasting results.
All of the products we use contain some local anaesthetic built into the filler – which makes the procedure more comfortable. For the most sensitive and anxious patients, we also have the option of applying topical anaesthetic before the injection.
Most patients at the earlier stages of ageing will require a minimum of 2mls of filler for a satisfactory correction. If you have more advanced ageing or volume loss then you will likely need more than this however we will discuss the volume requirements as part of your initial consultation.

Common Questions
How Do HA Dermal Fillers Rejuvenate the Face and Skin?
The injection of hyaluronic acid fillers in the cheeks and mid-face area can be so effective because of how the face and skin age.
When we are young, we have a full, healthy layer of fat that lies below the skin and gives the face its youthful fullness. As we age, however, we lose facial volume — so this fatty layer diminishes, leading to the appearance of deflation or descent in the cheek and face. This process typically begins in the early 30s and accelerates throughout the 40s and into the 50s.
How Do Cheek Fillers Affect the Facial Appearance?
The purpose of facial filler injections is to restore lost volume and reduce wrinkles by smoothing out the skin. Facial fillers for the cheeks accomplish this by focusing on the mid-face area. Cheek fillers restore hollow, sunken cheeks and reduced the appearance of sagging skin, wrinkles, and hollow areas.
The dermal filler cheek procedure typically involves treating multiple different parts of the cheek including include both the upper and lower cheek, sometimes extending further down as part of a cheek and jaw fillers treatment. We will create a bespoke treatment plan for your face at your initial consultation.
Which Other Filler Treatments Work with Cheek Fillers?
McKeown Medical, our state of the art aesthetic clinic in Glasgow, is well known for its dermal filler treatments.
We have helped countless patients get their confidence back by using dermal fillers for the cheeks and various other areas on the face, such as the lips, nose, jaw, chin, forehead, and eyes. We can also do a full non-surgical facelift procedure using only dermal fillers. This is a great non-invasive way to restore your youthful, natural beauty without surgery.
During your consultation, you will discuss your goals to determine the most suitable cheek enhancement treatment plan for achieving your desired results.
