Zygoma (Cheekbone) Filler

The aesthetic gains from this treatment are quite varied. The strategically added volume to the cheekbones creates a gentle lifting effect towards the upper part of the face. Thanks to this lifting effect, the depth of the nasolabial grooves (laugh lines) descending from the sides of the nose to the corners of the mouth is reduced and the sagging appearance of the lower face is alleviated. The face gains a more V-shaped and proportionate form, referred to as the “triangle of youth”. At the same time, prominent cheekbones help make under-eye hollows less noticeable by providing a smoother transition between the under-eye area and the cheek.

The application is an excellent solution for people who feel flattening and loss of volume, especially in the cheek area, and who think that they look tired because of this. In addition, it is also frequently preferred by young patients who have structurally more ambiguous cheekbones and want to add more definition and sharpness to their facial features, even if the signs of aging have not yet begun. In short, anyone who wants to give their face a more rested, healthy and attractive expression can be a suitable candidate for this procedure.

The procedure process begins with our physician evaluating the anatomy and golden ratios of your face and creating the most suitable aesthetic plan for you. The area to be treated is numbed with an anesthetic cream to eliminate the sensation of pain. Then, the hyaluronic acid filler is injected under the skin, exactly where it is needed, through fine needles or special cannulas that minimize tissue damage. As soon as the procedure is over, you can instantly see the prominence of your cheekbones and the lifting effect on your face. The permanence of this aesthetic appearance continues for an average of 12 to 24 months, depending on the density of the filler used and the skin structure of the person.

As for the issues that our patients often wonder; the procedure is completed in a very comfortable and painless way thanks to anesthetic creams. When performed by an experienced physician with the right technique, the results are extremely natural and integrated with your face, far from an exaggerated or artificial “puffy face” appearance. The hyaluronic acid used in the treatment is a substance that is fully compatible with the body and offers an important assurance that the procedure can be reversed by being completely dissolved with the enzyme “hyaluronidase” in case of dissatisfaction. You can return to your daily life immediately after the application; a slight edema or rare bruises that may occur in the procedure area will disappear spontaneously within a few days.
