CHEEK AUGMENTATION
FACE SURGERIES
CHEEK AUGMENTATION IN
NEW YORK CITY
Do you wish your cheeks were a bit fuller or your cheekbones more pronounced? Maybe your look has changed with age, and your now gaunt cheeks feel as though they belong to somebody else.
Aging often reduces the fullness and tautness of cheeks. However, our New York cosmetic surgeons create the fuller, more youthful appearance patients often desire through cheek augmentation. A cheek augmentation uses cheek implants customized to your specific goals to help achieve your ideal facial appearance.

What Are the Benefits of Cheek Augmentation?
Cheek augmentation surgery can provide men and women with full, pronounced cheeks and cheekbones through the use of cheek implants. Cheek augmentation creates:
-
Fuller, higher cheeks
-
Balanced facial features
-
A youthful appearance
How Long Does it Take to Recover From Cheek Implants?
Patients often report a sensation similar to the numbness felt after a dental procedure immediately after their cheek augmentation. The next day, a normal feeling will return to your cheeks and mouth, though you will continue to experience some soreness due to swelling. Your surgeon may recommend a soft food diet to ease comfort and healing. Some tightness will also be felt in the cheeks as your skin adapts to the new, fuller shape.
Light exercise can begin as soon as you feel able, though more strenuous activities should be avoided for one week following your cheek augmentation. After your surgery, you will be given specific guidelines regarding sports that involve physical contact.
Is Cheek Augmentation Painful?
Cheek augmentation is performed using anesthesia to ensure you are not in any pain during the surgery. You may experience bruising, swelling, and discomfort during your recovery. Any pain can be combated with over-the-counter or prescription pain medication.
Will Cheek Augmentation Leave Scars?
Like any cosmetic surgery procedure requiring incisions, cheek augmentation surgery will leave scars. However, since the incisions are made in the mouth, the scars are not visible.
How Much Does Cheek Augmentation Cost?
At New Look New Life, cheek augmentation starts as low as $5,500. You will be given a detailed quote during your consultation with Dr. Karlinsky or Dr. Kim. The cost of your cheek augmentation will include your surgeon fee, anesthesia, operating room fees, your chosen cheek implants, required garments, and all of your follow-up visits. Financing options are also available if needed.
Do I have to stay overnight after my cheek augmentation surgery?
No, cosmetic cheek augmentation does not require a hospital stay. After recovering comfortably in our surgical center, you should have a friend or relative drive you home.
What are the alternatives to cheek augmentation?
Blood-thinning medication and NSAIDs such as aspirin, Advil® or ibuprofen, and Aleve® must be avoided for two weeks before and after surgery. We also require that you quit smoking for the month surrounding your procedure.
When will I see my cheek augmentation results?
Cheek implant results are immediate, and, as with other cosmetic procedures, you will continue to see improvements throughout the healing process.
What are the risks associated with cheek augmentation?
Beyond the temporary changes in cheek sensation, the rare risks associated with cheek augmentation surgery may include bleeding, poor scarring, shifting of the implant, and infection.
How long does cheek augmentation last?
Cheek implant surgery gives patients the permanent cheek augmentation results they desire— stronger cheekbones and fuller, more youthful cheeks.
Can I have my cheek implants removed?
Removing cheek implants is a surgical option if you are dissatisfied with your results over time. However, this is rare as most patients are satisfied with the look of their cheek implants for many years.
