Cheek Augmentation in Malaga
Many patients desire to enhance the size of their cheeks. We can fill them using dermal fillers. Also known as fillers, materials like hyaluronic acid and calcium hydroxyapatite are used, or even with the patient’s own fat through lipotransfer.
Alternatively, we can augment the cheeks by placing an implant through the mouth, without visible scars. Dr. Javier Collado’s preference is to perform cheek augmentation using the patient’s own fat, as it achieves a lasting result without the inconveniences of implants. The main goal? To always seek a natural result that harmonizes with facial morphology.
Cheek augmentation process
The inevitable passage of time, gravity, and stress accelerate facial aging. Consequently, this factor accentuates skin sagging and drooping, especially in the cheeks, causing accumulated fat and skin to sag. These signs are particularly visible on the face and can even drastically alter facial expression, giving it a visible sense of sadness.
It’s important to note that the preoperative preparation for cheek augmentation will vary depending on the technique and materials used, directly depending on the characteristics of each patient’s case.
Furthermore, the doctor and their team may request the patient’s medical history and prescribe clinical tests. The analytical results will ensure that the patient’s health is suitable for the surgical intervention
