Cheek Augmentation

Service Description

One of the classic marks of beauty has always been a high cheekbone. However, truth is, few of us are born with such classic features and up until recently, there was no affordable solution to obtain high cheek bones and the classic triangular look. Sadly, even for those fortunate to have good bone structure, over time our face can lose some of its shape becoming drawn and sometimes developing a gaunt tired expression. Cheek augmentation is now a popular treatment using both non-surgical and surgical cosmetic techniques. Now almost anyone can enjoy beautiful and prominent cheekbones. Whilst some Aethetic Practitioners opt for Restylane, we use Juvéderm Ultra 4, as it is generally a stronger and longer lasting product, with much faster (almost instant) visible results. Each solution has a gel material made with hyaluronic acid. There are different types of Juvéderm injections intended for different areas of the face. Some are designed for the mouth area only (including the lips), while others add volume to cheeks. Certain injections are also used for the fine lines that can develop around your nose and mouth. Juvéderm injections have all evolved into XC formulas. These are made with lidocaine, which helps decrease pain during the injections without the need for a separate topical anesthetic.
