Cheek Fillers Before and After

Cheeks Fillers are a quick solution for the natural hollowing that occurs as part of the ageing process? Fed up and frustrated with always looking tired no matter how much you sleep? Cheek Fillers could be the answer!

Ageing (loss of natural skin elasticity) combined with gravity typically causes the cheeks to lose their fullness. As skin and soft tissues lose their elasticity, the supporting structures for your face begin to fade.

Lifting the cheeks with fillers will enhance and define your face. Instantly filling out lines and wrinkles, whilst contouring your face.

Although this reduction in collagen and elastin happens all over the body, there are certain areas that it can be more apparent in – such as around your cheeks.

What is a Cheek Filler Treatment?

Cheek fillers are a non-surgical, aesthetic procedure that uses fillers to rejuvenate the cheek area, making you look more youthful and enhancing the contours on your face. They can even out any imbalances whilst smoothing fine lines and wrinkles.

Hollow cheeks can make you look gaunt or tired, thankfully this can be remedied easily.

How Does A Cheek Filler Treatment Work?

Cheek fillers will give you a fresher, more youthful appearance by tightening the area around your cheeks.

During a cheek filler treatment, your aesthetic doctor will place filler in to the problem area using a very fine needle. The fillers usually contain a numbing agent, so you don’t have to worry about pain.

With a Cheek Filler Treatment, there’s no cutting or slicing. Instead, your aesthetic doctor uses a small needle to inject dermal fillers in specific areas to lift and enhance your cheeks. Reducing sagging skin or wrinkles and giving you a smoother, more youthful appearance.

The treatment is very quick, taking between 15-30 mins and the results are usually visible instantly.

Does It Hurt?

At the beginning of the procedure, your aesthetic doctor will apply a local anaesthetic cream, or may inject a local anaesthetic to the area that is going to be treated. This cream or injection numbs your skin, blocking the pain signals and making your treatment pain-free.

Most people say that it’s a similar experience to dental treatment with an anaesthetic – you can feel the procedure but experience no pain.

Cheek Filler – Before And After

How do you know what results to expect from cheek fillers? Before and after pictures are a great place to start, but we have one better, a video testimonial from Naomi Isted (BBC).

With a cheek filler treatment, before and after photos can help you to see what the treatment can offer you and give you an understanding of realistic results.

When you’re choosing a clinic or aesthetician to complete your cheek filler treatment, before and after pictures should play a part in your decision-making process.

It’s important that you make sure to check that the before and after photos the aesthetician shows you really are of their own work – there are some very talented, honest and ethical aestheticians out there – and some not so great ones who are willing to pass off other people’s work as their own too!

How Much Does A Cheek Filler Treatment Cost?

If you’re considering a cheek fillers as a way to get rid of those hollow cheeks and wrinkles and give yourself a fresher, more youthful look then you probably want to know how much they cost?

Cosmetic surgery is often expensive, but non-surgical aesthetic alternatives are usually much more affordable!

Cheek fillers are no exception. When completed by a professional, qualified and experienced aesthetician, your brow lift treatment should only cost somewhere between £325-375.

You only need one single treatment and the results should last you between 6-12 months, making them not only safe and effective – but very affordable too.

Are Cheek Fillers Safe?

Like other similar treatments, there are some small risks involved with this treatment –  but when performed by a professional and qualified doctor cheek fillers are usually a safe, minimally-invasive treatment.

You might notice some minor, localised swelling immediately after the treatment but this usually resolves within 24-48 hours, leaving you with smoother forehead, wider eyes and a more youthful-looking appearance.

It’s always important to choose a reputable clinic or aesthetician, no matter what kind of treatment you’re having – but even more so with a cheek filler treatment!

Because the skin around the cheek is delicate it’s essential that the doctor that’s treating you is professionally trained and knowledgeable if you want to get good results.

What To Look For When Choosing a Clinic or Aesthetician

Unfortunately, the aesthetic industry is not nearly regulated enough. Clinics are required to be registered with the CQC if they wish to offer thread treatments. The doctor must be trained, qualified or insured to perform this type of treatment, however, there are clinics offering threads with the reassurance of CQC registration! Because of this it’s very important that you research and choose a doctor that you know to be qualified, skilled and safe.

So what should you look for in a clinic or doctor?

• They Should Be Professionally Qualified – A professional aesthetic doctor will have undertaken training and gained qualifications for any treatments they offer. They’ll be happy to show you their certificates. Certificates should ideally be GMC accredited and your aesthetician CQC Registered.
• They Should Be Experienced – Skill comes with experience and practice, so ideally if you want the best results, then you should choose an doctorwho has been in business for several years.
• They Should Be Insured – Professional aesthetic doctors understand the importance of insurance – to keep both you and their business safe. A reputable clinic will be happy to show you their insurance certificates – be VERY wary of anyone practising without insurance as it could mean the insurers won’t cover them!
• They Should Offer Comprehensive Consultations – Before you undergo any treatment a good aesthetician will do a full consultation with you. During this consultation they’ll ask you what you’re looking to achieve, discuss the treatment options and tell you the full cost for your brow lift.
• Cheek Fillers – Before And After Examples – And finally, a skilled and experienced aesthetician will have plenty of pictures of brow lift (before and after) to show you, so you can see the results they are able to offer.
