 A deficient cheek structure can make your face
appear drawn and gaunt. It may give the appearance of heaviness in
the lower face and an aged look of the undereye area. Many
attractive people have strong cheek bones and a softened appearance due
to adequate soft tissue in this area. Prominent, full cheeks give
us a youthful, healthy appearance. Cheeks which are too fatty, or
large, can make us look overweight and heavy. When augmentation is
performed incorrectly it can make us look very unnatural. There is
a definite balance, so choosing a
skilled plastic surgeon is imperative. Please see our Plastic
Surgeon Locator section to help you find a medical professional.
All of the information
found on our website
has been thoroughly researched and provided to you at no cost. We
have had cheek augmentation ourselves, and some of us have even had
complications. Who better to help you understand what to expect
than real patients who have gone through it already? While your
surgeon can give you basics, and technical details--to know what it
truly feels like, you need real patient experiences. Your surgeon
is able give you any information that you need, however, you normally do
not receive the information you crave in an hour or two of consultations
and pre-op appointments. Most patients want to read up on all of
their options and their risks, see cheek
augmentation before and after photos and seek out other
patients. During your cheek augmentation recovery period, our
forum members are available to compare stories and share experiences and
photos. While, our website is not meant to be construed as
specific medical advice, or replace any instructions from your surgeon,
we are here to offer a helping hand with education and support.
To effectively navigate our website, you
