What is Cheek Augmentation (cheek implant)?
Cheek implants are usually made of silicon or another inorganic material. They are put in place to give more definition to your face, and to give volume to the cheek area that has become flat.
Who is a good candidate for cheek augmentation?
Facial implants are growing in popularity, especially as we age. Through time, we lose the fullness that is so common in youthful faces, and we see hollow cheeks, sunken eyes and saggy skin as its replacement. In order to regain some of that youthful substance, people are turning to cheek augmentation as a solution.
Other patients find that their face isn’t symmetrical or balanced. If this is the case, cheek implants or a single cheek implant can even out your appearance and give you a more regulated look.
