Cheek fillers aren’t permanent, and how long they last can vary from person to person. Typically, they can last anywhere from 1 to 2 years, depending on factors like the type of filler used and the characteristics of the patient. 

After establishing your aesthetic goals with your injector, a topical numbing cream is applied to minimize discomfort. A cheek filler appointment can last about 45 minutes – 1 hour. There is little to no downtime with this procedure, but it takes a few weeks for the filler to completely settle in. Some bruising and swelling may occur. Our highly trained nurse injectors at Illume will guide you in post-treatment care.

Our dermal fillers used in this procedure are made of hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring sugar in our bodies that uses water to help add volume.

• Juvéderm™  Filler – As you age, the cheeks may flatten and the skin may begin to sag. This is caused by natural loss of volume in the cheek area, or what the experts call age-related midface volume loss. JUVÉDERM VOLUMA XC is designed to add volume beneath the skin’s surface, which provides lift and contour to the cheek area. JUVÉDERM VOLUMA XC provides natural-looking and long-lasting results that last up to 2 years with optimal treatment.
• Restylane  Filler – As we age and lose volume in the midface, we also lose definition in the cheeks. Restylane Contour is the only cheek filler with XpresHAn Technology™ that restores your natural contour, frees dynamic expression, and refreshes your look. Balancing the science and art of aesthetics, this unique injectable hyaluronic acid gel creates natural-looking, subtly rejuvenated cheeks that are reminiscent of your younger self, but true to what makes you beautiful today. Restylane Lyft, formerly known as Perlane-L®, is an injectable hyaluronic acid gel used to correct volume loss and treat wrinkles in the face and hands. Through nonsurgical injections, Restylane Lyft is specifically designed to add fullness to the cheeks, midface area, and the back of the hands to help complete your aesthetic look — for face and hands.

Some bruising, redness, and swelling may occur. These are all very minor side effects. Our highly trained nurse injectors at Illume will guide you in post-treatment care.
