Are cheek fillers worth it? New Jersey’s injectors at The Peer Group regularly work with both women and men who definitely think so!
High cheekbones are considered by many people to one of the most attractive facial features. In fact, three characteristics that tend to be associated with a youthful face are high cheekbones, full cheeks, and a defined jawline.
Unfortunately, the midface may become hollowed or flattened as we age and lose the volume provided by youthful facial fat. Alternatively, some people have always had flatter, barely noticeable, or lower cheekbones due to genetics.
If you want that high, chiselled look, cheek fillers should certainly be on your list of techniques to consider. Whether you’re aware of it or not, there’s a high chance that someone you know has had fillers injected into their cheek area.
Cheek fillers are one of the most versatile types of facial fillers procedures, so they are very popular among patients who are new to fillers. The most common types of fillers for this area of the face are hyaluronic acid-based options like Juvéderm® Voluma®, which has a thick consistency ideal for creating noticeable and lasting volume. These fillers contain hyaluronic acid—a version of the same substance your body produces to keep your skin moisturized—and they work by adding plumpness beneath the skin.
Patients of all ages and skin textures can benefit from cheek fillers, and almost anyone can be a candidate.
Fillers can be used to:
- Add definition to and enhance or strengthen the contours of the cheekbones
- Sharply define the facial bone structure
- Increase volume in the cheeks
- Make the face look more youthful
- Reduce wrinkles and lines such as marionette lines
- Camouflage asymmetry
Fillers have different effects depending on where in the cheek they are injected. When introduced into the higher areas of the cheeks, they can have a contouring effect, but they can also be added into the larger part of the cheek if you’re losing volume in that area.
