Cheek augmentation

Effective cheek augmentation

Due to the breakdown of fatty tissue and collagen in the face, illness or the natural ageing process, the cheeks can lose their fullness over time, which can lead to a tired or aged appearance. Cheek augmentation with hyaluronic acid is a popular procedure in aesthetic medicine that serves to improve and plump up the volume and contour of the cheeks.

The treatment

The treatment process begins with an in-depth consultation with our experienced specialist staff. During this consultation, your individual needs and expectations will be discussed and the specialist staff will take your medical history and any allergies and intolerances into account.
During the actual treatment, the skin in the cheek area will be thoroughly cleansed and, if required, a local anaesthetic cream may be used to minimize discomfort during the injections.
The practitioner will then use fine needles or cannulas to inject the hyaluronic acid into the cheek area. The exact injection site depends on the patient's individual needs and goals. The specialist can target the volume to accentuate the cheekbones, reduce wrinkles or plump up hollow cheeks.
During the injections, progress is carefully monitored to ensure consistent results. The entire treatment usually only takes around 15 to 20 minutes, depending on the extent of the cheek enhancement and the number of points injected.
After the treatment, there may be slight swelling, redness or bruising, but this usually subsides quickly. Most people can resume their normal activities immediately and the results are usually visible straight away. Over the next few days, the results may continue to improve as the swelling completely subsides and the hyaluronic acid takes full effect.
