How Cheek fillers Works
At Oracle Clinics in Newcastle Upon Tyne, cheek fillers are a popular choice for enhancing facial features and restoring a youthful appearance. Cheek fillers are a type of dermal filler treatment that uses hyaluronic acid-based products to add volume, lift, and contour the cheeks. These dermal filler injections target areas of volume loss and improve the overall structure and balance of the face.
Cheek fillers work by injecting hyaluronic acid, a natural component of the skin, into the cheek area. Hyaluronic acid attracts and retains moisture, which helps to restore lost volume and improve skin elasticity. This leads to a fuller, more youthful appearance with smoother contours. The treatment is quick and minimally invasive, making it an ideal option for those looking to enhance their facial features without surgery.
Benefits of Cheek fillers
Cheek fillers offer numerous benefits for individuals seeking to enhance their appearance and combat the signs of ageing. These benefits include:
Youthful Appearance: Cheek fillers help to restore volume and lift the cheeks, providing a more youthful and rejuvenated look.
Enhanced Facial Features: By adding volume to the cheeks, fillers can enhance facial contours and improve overall facial symmetry.
Natural Beauty: Hyaluronic acid is a natural component of the skin, ensuring that the results of cheek fillers look and feel natural.
Collagen Production: Cheek fillers stimulate collagen production, improving skin quality and elasticity over time.
Minimally Invasive: The procedure involves minimal discomfort and downtime, allowing patients to resume their normal activities quickly.
Long-Lasting Results: Results from cheek fillers can last between 9–12 months, providing a long-lasting solution to volume loss and facial ageing.
High Patient Satisfaction: Many patients report high levels of satisfaction with their cheek filler treatments, enjoying the immediate and long-lasting improvements in their appearance
PREPARATION FOR CHEEK FILLER TREATMENT
Preparation for a cheek filler treatment at Oracle Clinics involves several key steps to ensure the best results and a comfortable experience.
An initial consultation with one of our aesthetic doctors is the first step in the treatment process. During this comprehensive consultation, the doctor will assess your facial features, discuss your aesthetic goals, and create a personalised treatment plan tailored to your needs. This helps to ensure that the treatment aligns with your expectations and delivers optimal results.
Before your cheek filler procedure, you will receive detailed pre-treatment instructions. These may include avoiding certain medications and supplements that can increase the risk of bruising, staying hydrated, and protecting your skin from sun exposure. A topical anaesthetic or numbing cream may be applied to the treatment area to minimise discomfort during the injections.
AFTERCARE AND RECOVERY
Proper aftercare is crucial for achieving the best results from your cheek filler treatment and minimising any side effects.
Avoid Touching the Area: Refrain from touching or massaging the treated areas to prevent the filler from shifting.
Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water to help maintain skin hydration and support the hyaluronic acid's effects.
Cold Packs: Apply cold packs to reduce swelling and minor bruising.
Resume Normal Activities: Most patients can resume their normal activities immediately after the treatment. However, it is advisable to avoid strenuous exercise and excessive sun or heat exposure for the first 24–48 hours.
Follow-Up Appointments: Schedule follow-up appointments as recommended to monitor the results and discuss any additional treatment needs.
Long-Lasting Results: The effects of cheek fillers typically last between 9–12 months, depending on the treatment area and product used. Some areas may benefit from additional treatment to maintain the desired look.
