Cheek filler is a popular treatment used to reduce the appearance of sagging skin and nasal labial folds. At Livio Med Spa, we treat sagging and hollow cheeks with a few types of hyaluronic acid filler: Juvederm Voluma and Restylane Lyft, and RHA4.
Cheek filler before and after #
Cheek fillers are a great way to add volume to your face, and these treatments are also helpful in correcting sagging skin, fat loss, and bone loss. It is a good option for both young adults and older people who want a non-surgical solution.
You can expect to see an immediate improvement after a cheek filler treatment. However, it’s important to be aware that the results will gradually diminish as time goes by. If you’re worried about the longevity of your results, talk to your provider about additional treatment options.
Juvederm Voluma Cheek filler #
Juvéderm Voluma is an injectable that restores lost volume in the cheeks. It helps reduce the appearance of sagging jowls, marionette lines, and other signs of aging.
The Juvéderm Voluma filler procedure is relatively easy and quick. You can return to your normal activities after the procedure completed. However, you should avoid intense exercise, heat, or sun exposure for one to three days post-treatment to let the filler settle.
Also, you should avoid blood-thinning medications, like ibuprofen, for at least two days before the injection.
If you are interested in using Juvederm Voluma to enhance your appearance, schedule a consultation with our providers at Livio and we can help you learn more about what to expect during treatment.
In addition to restoring volume to the cheeks, Juvederm Voluma can also help to soften wrinkles around your mouth. As a result, you can see a dramatic improvement in the appearance of your facial contours and balance.
Another benefit of Juvéderm Voluma is that it made of hyaluronic acid, a naturally occuring substance in the body.
Restylane Lyft Cheek filler #
Restylane Lyft is a cosmetic filler option that offers fast, natural-looking results. It can inject into the cheeks to fill hollow spaces, contour facial features, and reduce some types of wrinkles.
After the injection, you’ll notice immediate results. But a full effect will not be visible for a few days. Over time you may need to go back to your provider for touch-up treatments to maintain the results.
Injections of Restylane Lyft take only minutes, and the process is usually painless. If you’re considering a Restylane treatment, be sure to ask your provider any questions.
Cheek filler bruising and swelling #
When receiving a cheek filler injection, some minor after-effects, such as bruising and swelling, are normal. These will typically fade within a few days; however, it is possible for the healing process to last up to two weeks.
Although swelling is an inevitable side effect of filler treatment, there are steps you can take to minimize it. Some people are naturally more prone to swelling than others.
If you are concerned about swelling or bruising, ask your provider about how to treat and minimize it before undergoing the treatment. Also, avoid medications such as aspirin, increase the risk of bruising.
To treat any bruising post-treatment, it is best to use cold compresses and ice packs on the injection site. These measures will decrease the swelling and help the bruising fade faster.
Cheek’s filler aftercare #
Cheek filler is ideal for boosting volume, reshaping the mid-face area, and adding definition to the cheekbones. It’s also an excellent treatment to add volume to the under-eye area. While the procedure is generally painless, some patients experience mild swelling, bruising, or redness post-treatment. These symptoms usually dissipate within a week. Depending on the type of cheek filler used, the final results can last up to two years.
The filler can dissolve by hyaluronidase, a naturally occurring enzyme.
How long does filler last in cheeks #
A cheek filler treatment is a cosmetic procedure that lifts the cheekbones, which makes a face appear more youthful and balanced. This type of treatment is non-invasive and requires little to no anesthesia.
There are many types of dermal fillers on the market, and hyaluronic acid fillers, such as Juvederm Voluma, and Restylane Lyft, are among the most popular. Fillers can last anywhere from six months to two years, depending on the individual.
