Temporary Saline Cheek Injection?

You certainly can have saline injected into your cheeks. This is good way to "try on" longer-lasting cheek fillers or simulate a cheek implant. The results are very short-lived, however. Likely within one day the augmentation will have resolved. Another option to simulate a cheek augmentation result is video-imaging that does not require you to undergo any actual procedure but digitally simulates the anticipated result. I hope this information is helpful.Stephen Weber MD, FACS

 it is possible to undergo saline injections into the cheek, however there very temporary and they do give a good idea of what fillers or an implant might look like. Fillers are also temporary. If you're looking for a permanent solution to cheek augmentation consider placing cheek implants.

Saline cheek injections prior to fillers or implants is in fact what I often do for patients who are undecided. The cost is somewhat less than the cost of a filler.
