Nonsurgical Cheek Enhancement

High, voluminous cheekbones have always been a sign of youth and beauty, but over time the cheeks begin to lose volume. As bone density diminishes and skin thins, facial folds and hollows become more pronounced, adding years to our appearance.

Until recently, a malarplasty, or surgical cheek augmentation, was the only way to add volume to the cheek area. Today, a minimally-invasive, no downtime office treatment is available at The Skin Center in Pittsburgh and Columbus, Ohio using longer-lasting dermal fillers to provide volume, fullness and definition to the face.

Free Skin Care Brochure


Cheek Enhancement with dermal fillers is a quick, walk-in, walk-out treatment that restores height, definition and fullness to the cheek area. Dermal fillers are injected at varying depths to plump the cheek area and restore natural volume and fullness instantly. Cheekbones become more defined, the overlying skin looks tighter and nasolabial folds are softened. Results can last from 6 to 12 months or longer depending on the type of filler used.

Cheek Enhancement is often performed in conjunction with other nonsurgical medspa treatments at The Skin Center including BOTOX® Cosmetic for relaxing expression lines and EyeQ™ for smoothing fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes, and for lifting the eyebrows for a more youthful look.
