Cheek augmentation restores volume and projection to the mid-face using silicone implants, autologous fat transfer or hyaluronic acid filler. Implants are placed through tiny hidden incisions inside the mouth and provide permanent, highly predictable contour. Fat grafting delivers softer volume and can address adjacent hollows simultaneously, while fillers offer a reversible, non-surgical option for those wishing to trial the look first.
