Cheekbone Filling

What is Cheekbone Filling?

After a certain age, the skin begins to renew itself more slowly. Due to gravity and the skin's difficulty in renewing itself, sagging is inevitable as a result of the skin's inability to adhere to the tissues. In order to prevent the collapse and sagging of the face, the procedures performed with filling materials on certain parts of the face are called fillings. One of the most used materials as filling material is hyaluronic acid. As the hyaluronic acid in the skin's structure decreases over time, the skin cannot hold water as much as desired, which causes unwanted wrinkles, sagging and volumetric shrinkage.

If there is no clarity in the cheekbones caused by genetic, weakness and age-related factors in humans, we can say that all procedures performed with filling materials that rejuvenate and beautify the face for cosmetic purposes can be called cheek filling. A more voluminous image can be obtained in the zygomatic region. In recent years, cheek filling has become very common among women. In addition to women, men have cheek fillings. This process helps ladies look extremely attractive.

How is Cheekbone Filling Applied?

Cheekbone filling procedures are not permanent. The effect is felt longer in people who do it regularly.
