Cheek Augmentation: Q&A
Ask a Question
What is a Good Option to Enhance Jaw and Cheeks?
My problem’s that my lower jaws’re weak, so my neck looks fleshy and my face undefined. My cheeks and chin don’t have a lot of volumen and the nasolabial area is sunken so I have I have a dark shadow above my lips. I’d like to know what the best option is. I was considering fat injections but I’d like to ask if it’s the best option. Is there a possibility the fat can become enormous if I gain weight or it can fade if I lose it? Are there other better options? Thanks

Implants can enhance jaw and cheeks
Chin and cheek augmentation are typically the best procedures for augmenting those two areas. Both the cheeks and the chin have different requirements that necessitate augmentation in those areas. When a weak chin profile is present, a chin augmentation is done through a submental incision and a silastic implant is placed over the bone on the chin. Depending upon the degree of retrusion in the chin, a small, medium or large implant can be placed. With regards to cheek augmentation, the...

Facial Enhancement
A wide variety of facial implants are currently available for the enhancement of the skeletal elements of facial aesthetics.

Facial Enhancement
Fat liposculpture or implants are your two best choices to improve contour and add volume to your face. Consider a combination of these techniques. If you do have fat grafting, a procedure I've advocated for twenty- five years, find a surgeon in your community with experience in this technique.

Option to Enhance Cheeks & Jawline
Hi Marissa Elouard in Mexico,

Sometimes neck liposuction alone may help define the jawline and chin more. Silicone chin or jaw implants may help enhance the lower face. Lastly, fat injection is a natural option to enhance the cheeks,...

Facial enhancement procedure options
Hi Marissa! Great question! Fat transfer is a great way to add volume to your face, including the nasolabial folds, cheeks, lips, lower eyelid areas and along the jaw line. Results usually last several years, and we use your own fat, which is not rejected or foreign. Cheek and chin implants are also a good choice, especially if you are very thin and don't have much fat anywhere else on your body. Silicone implants are my preference, are easily placed...
