Cheek Augmentation Pensacola, FL | Peter Butler, MD

Understanding Cheek Augmentation

Loss of cheek volume is an early sign of aging that can significantly impact facial appearance. At Gulf Coast Plastic Surgery, specialized techniques restore volume to the cheeks, creating a lifted and rejuvenated look. The preferred method is fat transfer, which involves harvesting fat from areas like the hips, thighs, or abdomen and carefully injecting it into the cheek region.

Cheek Augmentation Techniques

• Fat Transfer: Removes fat via liposuction and injects it into cheeks
• Cheek Implants: Surgical option for long-lasting volume enhancement
• Dermal Fillers: Nonsurgical approach with temporary results

Surgical Approach

Fat grafting is typically performed in-office using local anesthesia. When bone loss or injury is present, implants may be necessary. Implant placement involves precise incisions, either inside the mouth or below the lower eyelashes, and is completed under general anesthesia at an outpatient surgery center.

Benefits of Cheek Augmentation

• Enhances facial balance and symmetry
• Creates higher, fuller cheek contours
• Fills age-related volume loss
• Minimal scarring
• Customizable results
• Low post-procedure risks

Procedure Considerations

The transferred fat naturally integrates into cheek tissue, responding to weight changes and providing a long-lasting, natural-looking enhancement. Patients can choose from subtle refinements to more prominent augmentation based on their aesthetic goals.
