Jeffrey H. Spiegel, MD · Answer

Lifting your cheeks can indeed be done.  But, for you, as you are young, it is possible that we can just go through the inside of your mouth to lift your cheeks.  Watch our videos to learn more.  In office cheek lifting can be done.

William Portuese, MD · Answer

It's because the Face does not descend vertically with the aging process, like the lateral face does. The mid face shrinks with volume loss, therefore we place cheek implants in the cheeks to restore that lost volume. There are many different complications can occur with a midface lift, that's why we never recommend them.
