Cheek Augmentation

Defined, lifted cheekbones through implants or fat

High, defined cheekbones are a marker of youth and facial harmony. Cheek augmentation builds projection and restores volume to a flat or sunken mid-face — using either anatomical implants or your own fat — for a naturally structured result that ages gracefully with you.

Cheek implants are placed through inconspicuous intra-oral or lower-eyelid incisions, resting on the cheekbone in precise anatomical pockets. Fat transfer augmentation uses your own processed fat, injected in micro-droplets for a soft, three-dimensional result. Both techniques are permanent and require only one procedure.

Key Benefits

  • Enhanced cheekbone projection and mid-face definition
  • Restoration of volume lost through ageing or weight loss
  • Natural, long-lasting result with a single procedure
  • Improved overall facial balance and symmetry

Is This Treatment Right For You?

  • Patients with flat or under-projected cheekbones
  • Individuals who have lost mid-face volume through ageing or weight loss
  • Those seeking facial definition without repeated filler treatments
  • Patients combining cheek augmentation with facelift or rhinoplasty

Frequently Asked Questions

Are the incisions visible?

Intra-oral incisions leave no external scars; lower-eyelid incisions heal to a barely visible fine line.

Will cheek implants shift over time?

Implants placed correctly in anatomical pockets integrate with surrounding tissue and do not migrate.
