My cheeks are not as full & round as I'd like. I'm considering cheek implants because they're permanent and more cost effective than fillers, but I also read that fat transfer is "semi permanent." How does fat graft or fat transfer compare to implants when it comes to durability and long term results? and which do you prefer? I'm looking for a natural but subtle change that won't be obvious, but I'm also concerned with the durability of the results, as well as the down-time required. Thanks!

Answer: Cheek Augmentation with Fillers (Radiesse, Voluma, Bellafill), Sculptra, implants, fat Volume and contouring of the face can be improved with well-placed fillers (Voluma, Radiesse, Bellafill) and Sculptra. Fat or implants are alternatives. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Late 20s female-options for cheek augmentation for a fuller more youthful face? Cheek implants are placed for patients who have a flat mid face and a flat maxilla, and they offer a volume restoration to the mid-face area on a permanent basis. We do not perform fat injections to the mid-face for a variety of reasons. Cheek implants are manufactured in a large assortment of both sizes and shapes which is best determined at the time of the consultation and examination. For diagrams of the implants, and many before-and-after examples, please see the link and the video below
