How prominent can Radiesse make a male cheekbone?

This depends on the patient and case. You can get great improvement with filler in the cheekbone area. I recommend seeing an expert for a formal consultation. Great products can also help with preventative anti-aging and collagen restoration (such as the Jan Marini Luminate Face Mask and Restorsea Eye . I offer complimentary skincare consultations at my clinic (virtually and in-person). Best, Dr. Emer. 

Radiesse is uniquely formulated for basically any type of facial contouring applications, including cheekbone definition. In other words, it is not just a gel. The main ingredient of Radiesse is calcium hydroxlapatite in the form of tiny microspheres suspended in a gel base. These particles aggregate together to form a mass of varying levels of firmness, depending on where the injection is placed. Radiesse is therefore able to provide the right form of support and firmness needed for the cheekbones (as well as the nosebridge and chin). You don’t have to worry about the results looking fatty, as you described. Once injected, the doctor can then shape the Radiesse to redefine your cheekbone area. As a patient, you are given local anesthesia with the option to stay awake during the procedure to watch the entire process and provide your own feedback. Your cheekbones can be made as prominent and sculpted as you’d like them to be.

Thank you for your question. I am happy to hear that you are interested in Radiesse. This type of filler is very popular for men. When injected properly it will enhance the male cheekbone area. The results are beautiful and you will love it. Also, it will not cause your face to look round. Hope this information helps.

Radiesse is an excellent treatment for male cheekbone enhancement and when placed by the appropriate and skilled injector can give you an enhanced yet natural look without giving the appearance of being "fatty".  Radiesse is a strong lifting type of filler which should allow for a structured appearance when injected by a skilled injector. 

Thank you for your question.  Radiesse can make your cheekbones more prominent.  Since Radiesse is calcium based, results last longer and if done properly will provide optimal results.  I recommend scheduling an appointment with a skilled injector or experienced physician to achieve your desired look.  All the best.

Male cheek anatomy is not the same as that of female cheek structure. While high cheekbones (like seen in models) are a desirable and much sought after when attempting to achieve a more youthful, feminine face, they would feminize a male face. In addition, male faces tend to be flatter (less rounded, as well) toward the central region of the face.Strong jawlines and broader chins, on the other hand, masculinize the face.  So, again poorly trained and inexperienced injectors accustomed to cookie cutter treatment of women's faces are likely to create poor outcomes in male patients wishing to achieve the more ideal masculine look. Less important these days is which volumizing filler to use. Voluma XC and Radiesse are fine for facial contouring and volume restoration, but the former has the advantage of being dissolved with an enzyme in the event that this becomes necessary. Radiesse lacks this significant advantage. And while Radiesse effects may last up to two years in the cheeks, my experience with Voluma is that its benefits last about 1.5+ years, making Radiesse not significantly that more advantageous in duration vs. its obvious disadvantage of not having that safety net for easy removal should that be necessary. Make sure that you consult with a board certified aesthetic physician, and be certain to ask to see his/her personal before and after photos of men treated in the specific areas for which you seek improvement.   

The cheek bone can be made more prominent by injecting Radiesse, and the amount of enhancement will be correlated with how much Radiesse is used.  I think that cheek implants can provide the most augmentation, but Radiesse can definitely provide some augmentation as well.  Radiesse is a relatively firm filler, so I find it does work well to enhance areas along the bone, such as the jaw or cheek.  The appearance of the cheek after injection will be dependent on the physician performing the treatment.  

Thanks for your question.  Radiesse is generally a pretty good choice for cheek volume and definition, and how angular or enhanced your cheeks look depends on your overall face shape, amount injected, and skill of your dermatologist or plastic surgeon doing your injections.  You should seek out someone with results and a safety record you can trust and make sure you make your goals clear and realistic.  You might want to go slow and just have one or two syringes injected, and if you like that look, stay right there for a year or more until the Radiesse has been metabolized.  If too much is injected initially, you can't dissolve the Radiesse, so you are stuck for quite some time.  See an expert and best of luck!

Radiesse injected properly can give excellent results. It’s very good to add volume to the cheek area. 

Depending upon the individual's particular goal Radiesse can give a natural appearance with nice improvement of facial aesthetics. The keys here are reasonable patient expectations and proper injection technique. Overfilling is where problems occur. It is possible to inject close to the bone and in the subcutaneous tissues with pleasing results.  Best of Luck  Dr Harrell
