Cheek Augmentation using dermal fillers to stimulate collagen production and restore lost facial volume in a younger woman

Soft, round, and full cheeks are a sign of youth and beauty. Age and sun damage are the common factors which reduce facial volume and contribute to flatter cheeks. Washington cosmetic surgery patients have many options today to rejuvenate the cheek and midfacial area. Office procedures for non-surgical enhancement include Radiesse ® and Sculptra®, while a surgical cheek lift or cheek implant provide a permanent improvement.

This DC area woman wanted to enhance her cheeks to have the round, full shape that was present when she was younger. Cosmetic options were reviewed with DC cosmetic surgeon Dr. Chaboki, including reviewing several photographs from when she was younger. She chose Sculptra® Aesthetic that stimulates collagen production to help obtain natural results. Performed in the office similar to other facial fillers in Washington, Sculptra® Aesthetic is a quick procedure via local anesthesia. A gradual treatment program spread over a few months with Scuptra® Aesthetic helped fill out her cheeks and restore the lost facial volume.
