Cheek filler in Southport

What is cheek filler?

Cheek filler uses hyaluronic acid filler placed over the cheekbones and in the mid-face to restore volume and support. As we age, the cheeks lose volume, which can make the face look tired and contribute to nose-to-mouth lines and early jowling.

By supporting the cheeks, we can create a gentle lift, improve contour and soften the look of tiredness, without changing who you are. Cheek filler can also add definition to the cheekbones if you'd like a more sculpted look.

Who it suits

• Your cheeks look flatter or hollower than they used to
• You look tired even when you feel rested
• You'd like more defined cheekbones
• You'd like a lifted look in the mid-face without surgery

What to expect

1. A consultation to assess your face at rest and when smiling
2. We mark the points where support is needed
3. Numbing cream is applied, and the filler contains local anaesthetic
4. Filler is placed precisely with a fine needle or cannula
5. You'll see the lift straight away; any swelling settles within a few days
