Enhanced cheek volume
This treatment lifts, rejuvenates and adds volume to cheeks that have lost fullness with age, softening nose-to-mouth lines and creating stronger cheekbone definition and enhanced facial contours.
You will see some results as soon as the treatment is finished. The full effects will develop over the next four weeks. The results will normally last for around 12–18 months.
The treatment process step-by-step
Step 1
This treatment takes about 45 minutes, which includes a detailed consultation with your doctor.
Step 2
First, we apply numbing cream and make a small number of local anaesthetic injections into the facial area.
Step 3
We then place small amounts of dissolvable hyaluronic acid facial filler into and around the cheeks. This is done with a needle and small cannula.
