As we age, our skin loses elasticity and volume, leading to sagging and wrinkles. One area that can be particularly affected is the cheeks, where a loss of fat pads can contribute to sagging in the lower face and the formation of lines and jowls. However, there is a non-surgical solution that can help restore a youthful appearance: cheek filler.
What Is Cheek Filler?
Cheek filler is a cosmetic treatment that involves injecting dermal fillers into the cheeks to restore volume and contour. Dermal fillers are made of a gel-like substance, often hyaluronic acid, which is naturally found in the body and can plump up the skin.
How Does Cheek Filler Work?
Cheek filler works by adding volume and contour to the cheeks. During the treatment, the filler is injected into specific areas of the cheeks to enhance the overall shape of the face. This can help to lift sagging skin, smooth out wrinkles, and restore a more youthful appearance.
How Is Cheek Filler Administered?
The treatment typically takes around 30 minutes and is done at DermaPharm Aesthetics Clinic based in Stockton. The procedure involves injecting the filler into the cheeks using a needle or a cannula, depending on the desired outcome. The treatment is customized to the individual patient’s needs, with the filler being injected into specific areas of the cheeks to achieve the desired results.
Are There Any Side Effects of Cheek Filler?
Like any medical procedure, there are potential side effects associated with cheek filler. However, the risks are minimal and the treatment is generally considered safe. Some possible side effects include redness, swelling, bruising, and tenderness at the injection site. These side effects typically resolve within a few days to a week. Rarely, more serious side effects, such as infection or allergic reaction, can occur.
