Restored Facial Volume

Enhanced Facial Contours

By enhancing the definition and prominence of the cheekbones, cheek augmentation can contribute to a more sculpted and refined facial appearance.

THE PROCEDURE

What is Cheek Augmentation?

Cheek augmentation is a cosmetic surgery that aims to improve the look of the cheeks by making them fuller and more sculpted. It can be performed using dermal fillers, cheek implants, or fat transfer techniques, depending on the patient’s unique needs and aesthetic goals.

How Cheek Augmentation Supports Facial Balancing

The cheeks are a fundamental component in establishing an overall sense of proportion and aesthetic appeal in the face. Well-defined, prominent cheeks can create a more youthful appearance by restoring volume and reducing the appearance of sagging. They also improve facial proportions by creating a harmonious relationship between the cheeks and other facial features, enhancing facial contours, and drawing attention to the eyes for a more attractive appearance. Addressing concerns about flat or sagging cheeks can boost self-confidence.

Dr. Rubinstein’s expertise in facial plastic surgery allows him to create customized treatment plans that consider each patient’s unique facial structure, concerns, and goals. By using advanced techniques and a keen eye for detail, he helps patients achieve a balanced, youthful, and attractive appearance through cheek augmentation.

Cheek Augmentation Options

There are several options for cheek augmentation, each offering unique benefits. The best choice for you will depend on your individual needs and aesthetic goals.

Dermal Fillers: Temporary Results

For those interested in enhancing their cheek volume but not ready for a permanent change, temporary solutions like dermal fillers or biostimulants like Radiesse and Sculptra injections can be an excellent choice. These non-surgical treatments restore volume to the cheeks and improve facial contours, providing a refreshed and youthful appearance. A common fear is leaving overfilled and looking fake. Dr. Rubinstein uses a unique approach where he fills around the supporting cheek ligaments. This technique requires less filler and also dramatically lifts the cheeks and even can reduce the jowls. These temporary procedures are less invasive and less costly upfront, making them an appealing option for those testing out a new look or for budget-conscious individuals. Results can last 1 to 2 years.

Fat injections

Fat transfer is another technique that can enhance cheek volume and contour. This procedure involves extracting fat from areas of the patient’s body where it is abundant, such as the abdomen, thighs, or flanks, and then carefully purifying it. The purified fat is then injected into the cheeks. While fat transfer results are natural-looking and permanent, the outcome of the procedure can vary significantly among patients.

Cheek Implants: Permanent Results

For individuals seeking a long-term solution to enhance their facial contours, cheek implants offer a permanent option. Cheek augmentation is particularly suitable for those who have consistently lacked prominence in the mid-facial area or have experienced a reduction in volume as their face has aged. Cheek implants can also reduce the appearance of prominent jowls as they support the facial ligaments.

The Cheek Augmentation Procedure

The highly skilled Dr. Rubinstein typically performs cheek augmentation at his state-of-the-art Joint Commission fully certified surgical suite. Here’s how:

The procedure begins with the administration of local anesthesia and light sedation for the patient's comfort.
Two small incisions are then made inside the patient's mouth.
Through these incisions, the pre-selected implants are carefully inserted. There are various sizes and shapes. Dr. Rubinstein will help you pick the appropriate size and shape implant based on your individualized needs.

The implants used are made from non-toxic, non-fluid-filled materials such as solid silicone or polytetrafluoroethylene (Teflon), selected for their safety and patient satisfaction.

With a short procedure time and Dr. Rubinstein’s expert skills, cheek augmentation is a straightforward process that can significantly enhance facial aesthetics.

Potential Cheek Augmentation Complications

While cheek augmentation is generally considered a safe procedure, there are potential risks associated with any surgery. Potential complications of this procedure may include negative responses to the anesthesia, post-surgical infections, displacement of the implant, cheek numbness, and facial asymmetry. To reduce the likelihood of complications, it is essential to adhere closely to the pre- and post-operative guidelines provided by Dr. Rubinstein. It’s also important to discuss any concerns you may have during your consultation so you are fully informed about the procedure and its potential complications.

Following Dr. Rubinstein’s post-operative care instructions is recommended for a smooth and successful recovery.
