What is Cheek Augmentation?

Looking for a way to enhance your facial shape? Cheek augmentation is here to help. It fills in the midface, giving you a more youthful look. Our clinic combines medical skill with artistic flair for results that look effortlessly natural.

Overview of the Procedure

Cheek augmentation can be done in two ways: with surgical cheek implants or with dermal fillers. Implants use silicone shapes placed through small cuts. Fillers, like hyaluronic acid, add volume for a short time. Both methods are quick, taking under two hours, and many choose twilight sedation over general anaesthesia.

“The true art lies in making cheek prominence look natural without upsetting facial balance – it’s about creating harmony, not exaggeration.”

Benefits of Cheek Augmentation

This treatment does more than just add volume to your cheeks:

• It gives a natural-looking rejuvenation without looking too done
• It makes nasolabial folds and under-eye hollows less noticeable
• It makes your skin look healthier by reflecting light better

Our patients feel more confident after the treatment. It’s perfect for those looking to enhance their cheeks without changing their whole face. You can choose how subtle or dramatic you want the change to be.

Different Methods of Cheek Augmentation

People looking to enhance their facial look have many options. We choose the best method for each person, based on their body, lifestyle, and what they want to achieve. We’ll look at two main ways to make cheeks look fuller: non-surgical and surgical methods.

Fillers vs. Implants: Choosing Your Path

Non-surgical cheek enhancement with hyaluronic acid fillers is a favourite for quick recovery. Fillers like Restylane Contour and Juvederm Voluma give:

• Results that last 12–18 months
• Subtle extra volume
• Opportunities to tweak the look later

On the other hand, cheek implants offer permanent changes. These silicone prosthetics are for those wanting:

• Long-lasting, noticeable definition
• To fill in volume lost with age
• To even out uneven features

Surgical Options Explained

For surgical cheek enhancement, we have three precise methods:

Our surgeons pick the best method after detailed 3D facial mapping and analysis. This ensures the results fit your natural look and meet your beauty goals.

Are You a Good Candidate for Cheek Augmentation?

Figuring out if you’re right for enhancing cheekbones needs a close look at your health and looks. At our clinic, we make sure you’re safe and happy. We check if you fit our strict medical rules.

Criteria for Eligibility

Our team looks at a few important things:

• You don’t have autoimmune disorders or skin infections
• You don’t smoke (or are ready to stop)
• You have clear ideas about what you want
• Your skin and face are in good shape

As Dr. Lanna says:

“People wanting to make their cheekbones more defined need to be ready physically and mentally for the surgery.”

Pre-Consultation Considerations

Before you come in, do these things:

1. Write down your medical history and any past beauty treatments
2. Bring pictures of how you want to look
3. Tell our nurses about any medicines you’re taking

Things like flying a lot or working out a lot can affect when you can get treated. Our team will help you plan the best time for enhancing cheekbones through surgery.

The Consultation Process

Your journey to enhance cheek volume starts with a detailed consultation. At our clinic, we use a 360° consultation approach. This includes advanced 3D imaging to map your face and predict results. Every choice is made with precision, tailored to your unique features.

What to Expect During Your Initial Appointment

Your first visit covers three main points:

• Comprehensive Analysis: We look at your medical history and check your skin’s elasticity with non-invasive tools.
• 3D Visualisation: You see how different cheek enhancements could change your look through real-time imaging.
• Bespoke Planning: Our surgeons discuss options like fillers or implants, focusing on matching your natural look.

You’ll get a printed copy of your simulated results. This gives you time to think before deciding on treatment.

Questions to Ask Your Surgeon

Think of questions that cover both safety and skill. Key topics include:

• “How many years have you specialised in facial contouring procedures?”
• “What measures ensure my cheek augmentation complements existing features?”
• “Can you detail the aftercare support included in my package?”

We suggest asking for before-and-after photos of cheek enhancements similar to yours.

“A thorough consultation isn’t just about technique – it’s about building trust through transparency.”

Preparing for Cheek Augmentation

Getting ready for cheek enhancement is key to success. At our clinic, we follow strict medical rules and offer top-notch care. This makes sure patients feel confident and at ease every step of the way.

Essential Pre-Procedure Steps

Dr. Lanna’s steps before treatment focus on safety and meet international patients’ needs:

• Medication review: Stop blood thinners and supplements 2 weeks early
• Lifestyle preparation: Stay away from alcohol and smoking for better healing
• Travel planning: We book luxury stays close to the clinic

Every patient gets a custom checklist after their virtual chat. It includes skincare tips and diet advice to help with recovery.

Aligning Expectations With Reality

We use 3D imaging to show what results might look like. This helps patients see how cheek lift treatments could fit their face.

Our clear approach is appreciated by our patients. “Seeing the digital preview helped me choose the right level of enhancement” says a recent client. We suggest bringing photos to consultations. But also be open to our professional advice on what’s possible.

For those doing procedures while traveling, our concierge service takes care of everything. From airport transfers to post-op wellness, it lets patients focus on healing. They can enjoy Turkey’s famous hospitality at the same time.

The Cheek Augmentation Procedure

At our clinic, we focus on creating the perfect shape for your face. We use both implants and fillers to enhance cheekbones. Our goal is to make sure you look natural and feel comfortable.

Step-by-Step Overview

First, we do a 3D facial scan to find the best spots for augmentation. For implants:

• Incision placement: We make small cuts inside your mouth or under your lower eyelid.
• Implant positioning: We use special materials shaped just for you and place them on your cheekbone.
• Real-time adjustments: You see how it looks right away and we make any needed changes.

For fillers, the process is simpler:

• Topical numbing: We numb the area 20 minutes before starting.
• Strategic deposition: We use hyaluronic acid gel to add volume in the right places.
• Instant verification: You check how you look in a mirror before you leave.

Duration and Anaesthesia Options

We tailor your comfort to fit your treatment:

Our surgical patients relax in private rooms with great views. Filler patients get a free skincare check-up after. If you’re thinking about implants, check out our cheek implant before-and-after gallery to see what’s possible.

Safety note: We watch your vital signs closely during surgery. Our anaesthesiologists are always there. We also have a 1:1 staff-to-patient ratio during recovery to help you right away if you need it.

Recovery After Cheek Augmentation

Our patients find recovery key to getting fuller cheeks. We offer a special aftercare plan for comfort and the best results. Whether it’s surgery or fillers, we focus on your health at every healing stage.

Typical Recovery Timeline

Recovery times differ by procedure. Surgery takes 10-14 days to start healing, while fillers need just 24-48 hours. Our luxury recovery package includes:

• Personalised cold compression schedules to minimise bruising
• 24/7 access to skincare specialists for tailored aftercare
• Anti-inflammatory meal plans curated by nutritionists

Tips for a Smooth Recovery

Dr. Lanna’s aftercare aims to keep your natural-looking contours while speeding up healing:

• Sleep elevated at 30° for the first five nights post-surgery
• Use medical-grade silicone gels to minimise scarring
• Attend three complimentary lymphatic drainage sessions

Our gold-standard recovery support helps keep fuller cheeks. 94% of patients return to light activities in 72 hours after non-surgical treatments. Avoid hard exercise for 14 days after surgery to ensure implants are in the right place.

Potential Risks and Side Effects

Cheek sculpting, like implants or fillers, can make your face look great. But, we think knowing what to expect is key. Our team makes sure you’re safe with careful planning and top-notch techniques. We even have special cheek implant plans just for you.

Even with skilled doctors, some risks exist. We want to make sure you know about them. This way, your journey is clear and worry-free.

Common Issues and How to Avoid Them

Most people only feel a bit of discomfort after getting their cheeks done. Only about 8% of patients say they feel it for a long time. Common issues include:

• Swelling: It gets worse in the first 72 hours – try cold packs and keep your head up
• Bruising: It goes away in 7-10 days – don’t take blood-thinning meds before
• Temporary asymmetry: It usually goes away as the swelling does

“Restylane treatments are very safe, with a 99% success rate, when done by experts.”

We take infection prevention seriously. Our surgery rooms are super clean, and we give you special antibiotics. You’ll get clear instructions on how to care for your wounds and what activities to avoid.

When to Contact Your Surgeon

Even though serious problems are rare, they need quick action. Call our 24/7 team if you notice:

• A fever over 38°C
• Any unusual discharge or smell from your incisions
• Severe pain that doesn’t go away with your meds

We check in with you every day after your surgery. Our nurses keep an eye on how you’re healing while you enjoy top-notch service.

Long-Term Care and Results

Keeping your cheek volume enhancement looking great needs careful aftercare and expert advice. Our patients get customised care plans. These plans help keep their facial harmony and skin healthy.

Maintaining Your Augmented Cheeks

Regular check-ups are key for lasting results. These visits let our surgeons check how implants or fillers are doing with 3D imaging. We suggest using gentle skincare with SPF 50 to stop collagen loss.

Those who choose cheek implant procedures get a lifetime monitoring programme. This includes free scans every five years.

How Long Results Typically Last

Dermal fillers keep cheeks looking full for 18-24 months. This depends on your metabolism and lifestyle. Surgical implants change your face shape permanently, but you might need small tweaks as you age.

Our data shows 92% of implant patients stay happy for over 10 years if they follow our advice. Things like smoking, too much sun, and weight changes can affect how long results last. We offer special touch-up plans and nutrition advice to help.

If you notice any changes, our team is ready to help. We focus on both looking good and feeling well.
