But isn’t it weird to try and raise bones from within the face? Not really. In fact, many aesthetic procedures are rooted in evolutionary explanations. It’s customary to think of defined and raised cheeks as more attractive, as they symbolize sexual maturity. Children’s facial features tend to be rounder, softer, and without any defining features. Their cheeks are “swallowed” up with the rest of their facial characteristics. Contrarily, a more mature look is characterized by cheeks that are defined and stand out.
That said, a more relevant explanation is that these treatments make patients feel better about themselves. Prettier. More desirable. More attractive. Their improved physical appearance is what leads to their increased sense of self-confidence. Isn’t that reason enough?!
So, how is it done? There are several ways to sculpt cheekbones. Today, one of the most successful and popular approaches involves filling and sculpting cheeks with hyaluronic acid, a natural substance that’s injected into facial skin to add volume, tighten, and define the area. In this way, the face’s appearance can be “designed,” so that the right places are emphasized to the patient’s desire, and in accordance with the physician’s professional opinion.
What is Hyaluronic Acid?
Hyaluronic acid is a substance that naturally exists within the human body. It is essential to the occurrence of various biological processes, including tissue repair, cartilage functionality (in joints), and skin moisture maintenance. In recent years, the use of hyaluronic acid has taken flight, and it is currently administered as a face filler, for various aesthetic goals.
To whom is This Treatment Suited?
Cheekbone sculpting and cheek filler treatments are suitable for any man or woman over the age of 18 looking to change their face’s aesthetic appearance by raising or defining their cheekbones. These treatments can provide an excellent cosmetic solution for a wide variety of cases: younger women looking to boost their natural appearance, older women suffering from the natural effects of aging (bone and muscle mass loss), as well as men who aren’t satisfied with the structure of their face, and wish to obtain a more powerful and dominant look.
Treatment Advantages

- Correct asymmetry
- Smooth nose wrinkles
- Involve a simple, surgery-free process
- Are reversible

What’s Involved in Cheekbone Filling and Sculpting?
- A consultation at the clinic – The physician obtains a clear picture of the patient’s condition: the treatment’s goal, allergies/sensitivities (if applicable), etc. The physician and patient then formulate a detailed treatment plan.
- The treatment – Precise quantities of hyaluronic acid are injected into target areas within the cheeks. We use Stylage, which contains a local anesthetic, so no additional pricks are required.
- Duration – Treatments last approximately 30 minutes (the injections take up far less time). A follow-up appointment is made for 10-14 days after the treatment, and additional fillers are added, as needed.
- Side effects – The injections can cause some swelling, redness, and burst blood vessels. These side effects generally disappear within a few days (up to a week).
- Duration – Treatment results tend to last for 4-6 months, depending on the initial state. Additional treatment can be administered once the effects wear off, to restore the acid’s positive effects.
What about Safety?
Hyaluronic acid is naturally produced by the body and has significant health benefits. As such, the chance of significant adverse side effects from hyaluronic acid cheekbone injections is extremely low. While injections are made into areas that are full of blood vessels and nerves, when the treatment is performed by a trained and licensed professional (like at our clinic), there’s no reason for you to worry.
