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.
