Cheek Filler

To minimize the risk of bruising and achieve the best possible results, there are a few important guidelines to follow before your filler treatment:

• Avoid blood thinners: It is recommended to avoid medications such as aspirin and ibuprofen for at least one week prior to treatment, as they can increase the risk of bruising and bleeding.
• Avoid certain pain relievers: Refrain from using pain relievers that may affect blood clotting for one week before treatment to reduce the risk of bruising.
• Avoid Omega-3 supplements: Since Omega-3 can thin the blood and increase the risk of bruising, it is best to stop supplementation two weeks prior to your appointment.
• Avoid alcohol consumption: To minimize swelling and bruising, avoid alcohol for at least 24 hours before treatment, as alcohol can affect blood vessels.

By following these recommendations, you can help ensure that your filler treatment is as smooth and effective as possible.

Recovery time after a filler treatment is usually minimal. However, it is common to experience mild swelling, redness, or tenderness around the injection site during the first few days.

To support the healing process and optimize your results, we recommend avoiding intense physical activities and direct sun exposure for the first 24–48 hours after treatment. By following these guidelines, you can help minimize the risk of side effects and achieve the best possible outcome.

Yes, cheek filler can be effectively combined with other aesthetic treatments to enhance facial harmony. Treatments such as filler in the cheekbones, jawline, and chin, along with muscle relaxants in the masseter muscle, can be used together to balance and define facial contours.

At MyClinic, we apply the principles of the golden ratio to create harmonious proportions, ensuring that facial features complement each other naturally and aesthetically. By addressing multiple areas in a coordinated way, we achieve a more symmetrical and balanced profile that enhances your natural beauty.

No, the results of filler are not permanent. Filler are gradually broken down by the body over time, which means the effects will naturally diminish. To maintain and optimize the results, we recommend regular maintenance treatments. These follow-up treatments can be scheduled at appropriate intervals to ensure that the contours remain defined and the overall appearance stays fresh and balanced.

The results of cheek filler are visible immediately after treatment. Some mild swelling or redness may occur initially, but these effects usually subside within a few days. The final results become more apparent once the swelling has resolved, typically within 1–2 weeks.

In addition to providing instant volume and contouring, cheek filler also enhance skin texture by improving hydration and softness. To achieve the best possible outcome, it’s important to follow your practitioner’s aftercare instructions carefully.

Cheek filler typically last between 6 and 12 months, depending on individual factors such as metabolism, lifestyle, and the type of filler used. Hyaluronic acid, the most common ingredient in filler, is naturally broken down by the body over time.

As for the amount needed, it usually takes between 1 to 2 ml per side to restore volume and achieve a natural result. Your practitioner will always tailor the amount based on your individual anatomy and aesthetic goals to create a harmonious and balanced appearance.

The experience of pain during treatment varies from person to person, but we strive to make the procedure as comfortable as possible. To minimize discomfort, we use anesthetic ointment or local anesthesia before starting the treatment.

Our experienced nurses are trained in the latest techniques and use advanced equipment to ensure a gentle and comfortable experience. We always take the time to understand your individual needs and comfort level, and we are available to answer any questions you may have before, during, and after your treatment.

Side effects after cheek filler treatments are usually mild and temporary. The most common include:

• Swelling: Mild swelling is common immediately after treatment and typically subsides within 1–3 days.
• Redness: Slight redness around the injection site is normal and usually fades quickly.
• Bruising: Small bruises can occur, especially in sensitive areas, but they typically heal within a week.
• Tenderness: Some may experience a feeling of soreness or tightness in the treated area, which generally resolves within a few days.

To minimize the risk of side effects, it is important to carefully follow your practitioner’s pre- and post-treatment instructions.

Filler treatment generally requires no downtime, but there are a few important guidelines to follow to optimize results and minimize the risk of side effects:

• Avoid physical activity: Refrain from exercise and intense physical activities for at least 24 hours after treatment.
• Protect the treated area: Avoid touching or massaging the area immediately after the procedure to allow the filler to settle properly.
• Avoid alcohol and heat: Stay away from alcohol, saunas, and hot baths for the first 24–48 hours, as these can increase the risk of swelling or bruising.
• Delay other beauty treatments: Wait a few days before undergoing facial massages, microneedling, or chemical peels.

By following these recommendations, you can return to your normal routine quickly while ensuring the best possible results from your treatment.

Yes, filler can be removed, but it depends on the type of filler used. Hyaluronic acid-based filler can be safely and effectively dissolved using an enzyme called hyaluronidase.
