Can fillers give natural looking cheekbones?
They can, within a limit worth stating: hyaluronic acid is a soft gel and adds no bone. What it restores is the height and the forward curve the mid-face has lost, so the structure you already have becomes readable again. Whether the finished face looks like yours depends on the plane the gel is carried in, the tenths of a cc assigned to it, the family chosen and the proportion the projection is measured against at your diagnosis.
Can filler sharpen the actual bone, or only the tissue over it?
Only the tissue. The gel sits in soft tissue layers above the skeleton, so what changes is the contour the light reads, not the skeleton itself. A high point placed where your zygomatic base already rises borrows definition from your own structure; a high point placed away from it reads as an addition, which is the whole reason the map is drawn first.
How much filler does a cheekbone design usually take?
There is no standard figure here, and quoting one before a face has been measured would be arithmetic rather than planning. The mid-face is a structural area, so it is often written for more volume than a small feature, but the amount is set from your capture and it is written in tenths of a cc against a named layer. You approve that total before treatment starts.
Which hyaluronic acid is used for cheekbone projection?
Four families are stocked: our Korean house gel, Belotero from Germany, Restylane and Juvederm. Firmer, more cohesive products are generally asked to carry height deep against the bone, while an integrating gel is chosen where a transition has to stay soft. A single plan often uses two. The choice is made from the reading and confirmed with you.
Will my face look wider after cheekbone filler?
That is the risk the planning exists to manage. Width comes from volume placed forward and shallow, or from projection pushed past what your jaw and brow proportion supports. Volume set deep and high does the opposite. Where the measurement shows a face already wide at that level, the plan is small and deep, or the honest recommendation is a different treatment entirely.
Is cheekbone filler charged at the specialty-area rate?
No. Dear Clinic reserves the specialty-area rate for the lips and the temple, so a cheek is quoted from the standard per-cc column: ₩130,000 (≈ $95) per cc with our Korean family, and the imported families at their own listed per-cc rates. Billing follows the volume actually placed.
How long before a cheekbone design looks settled?
Swelling makes a fresh mid-face look fuller than the plan intends, and that extra volume is water bound to the gel. Judging the projection while it is present is not useful, so a review is arranged with you at the consultation and the design is read there once the area has calmed. How quickly that happens differs between people.
What happens if I dislike the projection once it settles?
Hyaluronic acid responds to a hyaluronidase enzyme injection, so the design can be partly reduced or cleared without waiting for it to resorb. Where a long period has passed and the material has fibrosed into firmer tissue, a single session may not remove it completely. The area is examined in person before either dissolving or adjusting is agreed.
Are men's cheekbone plans designed differently?
The measurements change, so the plan changes. A male mid-face is generally read for a flatter, more lateral high point sitting lower on the ridge, and for a straighter transition into the jaw outline. The four steps are the same; the target coordinates that come out of the capture are not.
What are the risks of injecting over the cheekbone?
Bruising at the entry points and swelling through the first days are ordinary and pass. A lump, a visible edge or a temporary asymmetry can occur and is usually correctable, including by dissolving. The serious risk is vascular: gel entering a vessel can cause skin necrosis and, very rarely, visual loss. Placement is therefore slow, at low pressure and in mapped planes, performed by a director with hyaluronidase to hand.
Can a cheekbone plan be combined with a lifting treatment?
Frequently it is sequenced rather than combined, and the order comes out of the scan. Where the mid-face shows both descent and lost volume, an energy session is usually quoted first and a smaller volume afterwards, because tightening changes how much gel the area still needs. The clinic is open 365 days, so the sequence can be arranged around a short trip.
