What is cheek filler and what are the benefits?

Before and after filler cheek filler treatments - note how this patient’s cheek filler treatment has resulted in subtle improvements in her facial contour and structure.

Cheek filler is a popular treatment at The Face Clinic Edinburgh as it is a minimally invasive way to add volume and contour to the cheeks. Our experienced doctors use high-quality dermal fillers to plump the cheeks and create a more youthful and refreshed complexion. Cheek filler can help to restore lost volume caused by ageing and can also enhance the natural contours of the face. The treatment typically takes around 30 minutes and results can last up to 18 months. At The Face Clinic Edinburgh, we take a personalised approach to cheek filler and work closely with our clients to ensure their desired look is achieved.

The cheeks are made up of several layers of tissue, including muscle, fat, and bone. During a cheek filler treatment, a hyaluronic acid-based filler is injected into the deep soft tissue of the cheeks. This helps to restore volume to the area by stimulating collagen production and creating a subtle lift. The filler is carefully placed along the cheekbone and cheek hollows to achieve a defined and natural-looking result. With the right technique and filler type, cheek filler is a great option for those looking to enhance their appearance without undergoing invasive surgery.

At The Face Clinic Edinburgh, here are some of the pros of cheek filler that we often discuss with our patients:

1. Restores volume: Cheek filler can help restore volume lost in the cheeks due to aging or weight loss. This can give the face a more youthful and plump appearance.

2. Enhances facial contours: Cheek filler can enhance your natural facial contours and add definition to your cheekbones, helping to create a more aesthetically pleasing facial shape.

3. Non-surgical: Cheek filler is a non-surgical treatment, meaning that it does not require invasive surgery and has a shorter recovery time compared to surgical procedures.

4. Minimal downtime: Patients can return to their normal activities almost immediately after the treatment, and any redness or swelling will typically resolve within a few days.

5. Customizable: Cheek filler treatments are highly customisable, allowing our doctors to tailor the treatment to each patient's unique facial structure and desired outcome.

6. Long-lasting results: Cheek filler can provide long-lasting results, with effects typically lasting up to 12 months. Patients can return for touch-up treatments as desired to maintain their results.
