The simplest way to create high cheekbones is with facial filers. I actually like to do this with patients considering implants to make sure they like the look before embarking on a surgical procedure.Hyaluronic acid fillers are easiest and can be reversed if you don't like the result (which almost no one requests). For longer lasting results, Radiesse is the product of choice.Surgical cheek implants, called malar augmentation is performed with silastic, solid silicone, or Medpor implants that are placed under anesthesia through the mouth. Numerous sizes and shapes are available. For total customization, custom cheek implants can be made that are based on modifying existing sizes or for unusual or asymmetric faces, on a 3-D model of the patient created from a CT scan.
Thank you for your question. Volume and contouring of the cheeks can be created with well-placed fillers (Voluma, Radiesse, Bellafill) and Sculptra. Implants or fat are alternatives. Botox and radiofrequency can help slim and contour the jawline. Liposuction can help slim the face. Ultherapy, J Plasma and rf treatments can provide skin tightening and lift. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer
High cheekbones can be achieved with fillers or implants. Basically, I would recommend a filler first to make sure that it is the look that you like because a solid implant would have to be removed if you are not happy or if it migrates. You can use short term fillers like juvderm or restylane which can last up to a year or intermediate term fillers like radiesse. Other options include sculptra which can add volume to the face in some cases as in my experience for at least three years. Then if you like the results of the fillers but want something more permanent you can go with various sized solid silastic implants which work very well. I hope this information helps.
There are many different options for this and range from:Fillers (Restylane, Perlane, Radiesse...)Fat injectionsMid-face liftCheek ImplantsBone GraftingThe correct option for you can only be made after consulting with a qualified surgeon.
High cheekbones are a very attractive feature and a very feminizing feature which is why they are highly sought after by patients. Augmentation can be achieved with fillers, fat grafting, and implant. What the patient wants and their previous experiences and goals, together we decide the best treatment modality. Detailed consultation is recommended to find the best possible treatment for each patient.
