Cosmetic Plastic Surgery In New York City:
Cheek Augmentation Injections
Cheeks that are prominent and well defined can give us a youthful, healthy appearance. They also provide depth and contours to the face that enhance the eyes and overall appearance, but as we age, deficiency in the structure of cheeks can make us appear gaunt and tired.
There is a way to almost instantly make an impact on your appearance – Cheek Augmentation.
Cheek Augmentation
Chin Augmentation can bring a more aesthetically pleasing appearance to the face and reduce the undermining effects of weak cheek bones, such as:
- Flatness of the face, lacking contours
- Undefined facial features
Strengthening or Augmentation of the cheek bones can be done two ways:
- Micro-Fat Grafting which adds volume to the cheek bones
- Permanent injectable fillers
The goal of Cheek Augmentation is to enhance the structure of the face and restore a youthful appearance. Cheek enhancement is a relatively simple procedure, but still requires sound judgment and a discerning eye to ensure the cheek bones are not overly pronounced, making the eyes appear recessed.
Preparation
As with all surgeries performed by Dr. Born, patients are prescribed supplements to take before and after the surgery, to help prepare and recover faster and without complications.
Procedure length
Cheek Augmentation is an outpatient procedure and takes about an hour.
Recovery
The will be some tenderness and tightness below the eyes; with some bruising can take up to three weeks to subside.
