What’s the difference between cheek filler and a surgical cheek implant?

< 1 min read

Both cheek fillers and cheek implants enhance the cheek area, but they work in very different ways. Here’s a breakdown:

Feature Cheek Filler (e.g., Juvederm Voluma XC ) Surgical Cheek Implants
Material Hyaluronic acid gel Solid silicone or other implant material
Procedure Minimally invasive injections Surgical placement under anesthesia
Results Temporary, lasting months to years Permanent
Downtime Minimal swelling and bruising Significant recovery period
Reversibility Can be dissolved with hyaluronidase if desired Requires surgery for removal

Which is Right for You?

  • Fillers: Ideal for those who want noticeable but less dramatic results, desire a trial period before committing, or prefer a non-surgical option.
  • Implants: Better suited for those seeking significant and permanent structural change, willing to undergo surgery, and are certain about the desired outcome.
