What are cheek fillers and how do they work?

If you’ve ever stood in front of your mirror and hoisted your jowls up from your cheekbones, then you’ll know what we’re talking about.

As we age, the pads of fat beneath the skin of our face begins to slip downwards, and the structure that once held our skin taut is no longer there to provide proper support.

Over time, as a result, our skin becomes lax and this may manifest in pronounced drooping brows, nasolabial folds (creases that form between your cheek and mouth), hollow temples, thinning lips, marionette lines or sagging jowls.

What dermal fillers do is act as a replacement support system, compensating for the loss of volume that’s occurred naturally through ageing.

By placing fillers in the cheeks, we can reintroduce definition and the appearance of plump youthful skin, while smoothing away creases and lifting drooping features.

Not all fillers are created equally

Your dermal filler treatments are performed by a specialised team of experienced doctors and cosmetic injectors, who provide safe, expert and individualised filler treatments.

Dermal fillers come in a variety of preparations depending on the treatment area.

At Contour Clinics, we stock over 20 preparations of premium-brand filler, giving us the most comprehensive range in Sydney.

This means you get the filler you need, rather than just the filler we have.

  • Full thickness fillers may be used to augment the jawline, chin or cheeks.
  • Medium thickness fillers are perfect for the lips and nasolabial folds.
  • Thinner consistencies are better used to correct fine lines, wrinkles or undereye hollowing.

Men: rewind the clock with dermal fillers

Do you feel that your face is looking tired or your skin appears older with lines that are getting deeper?

As we age, we lose the plumpness from our skin – the very thing that helped it stay taut and smooth in the past.

Dermal fillers are a way to combat this, because they act to fill the void where the fat pads beneath our skin used to sit before they naturally slipped downwards from ageing.

Fillers can be used in many different areas of the face, including your cheeks, brows, temples and eye area to provide a lifting and defining effect, giving you a younger and more youthful appearance.

You can get some amazing results from dermal fillers without the need for surgery. Quick to administer, it’s a treatment that you can easily slip into your schedule, with barely any downtime and no waiting around for results to show.

What areas can I treat with dermal fillers?

An obvious problem area that many people suffer with as they age is their face.

If you find that you are developing nasolabial folds (the deep-set crease between your cheeks and mouth), then you could benefit from cheek fillers.

An experienced physician will place filler where it is needed. This adds the volume that is required to plump your cheeks, create a more defined cheekbone, and lift your skin.

Dermal fillers can give you the instant results that you want. They are also quick to administer, and there is no downtime from this procedure, so it is perfect just before a special event to make you look your best.

Different consistencies of filler are used depending on the area of your face, and the results can last from anywhere from 6 months to 2 years.
