Cheek Filler
Cheek filler restores volume and adds definition to the cheeks, giving a subtle lift to the mid-face.
£300 per treatment area
Overview
Volume and definition for the mid-face
The cheeks lose volume with age, which can flatten the mid-face and deepen the lines running from the nose to the mouth.
Hyaluronic acid filler placed over the cheekbones restores support and shape. We tailor the amount and placement to your face so the result looks natural.
What it can help with
- Flattened or hollow cheeks
- Loss of definition over the cheekbones
- A tired-looking mid-face

What to expect
Consultation
We talk through your goals, check your medical history and assess the area, then agree a plan and the amount of filler.
Preparation
The skin is cleansed and numbing cream is applied if needed. Most fillers also contain a local anaesthetic.
Treatment
Hyaluronic acid filler is placed with a fine needle or cannula, in small amounts, checking the result as we go.
Review
We check how the area has settled and whether any small adjustment is needed, usually at around 2 to 4 weeks.

Aftercare
After your treatment
- Avoid make-up on the area for 24 hours
- Avoid alcohol and strenuous exercise for 24 hours
- Avoid pressing or massaging the area for the first week

Possible side effects and risks
Common and usually short-lived: swelling, bruising, tenderness, redness and pinprick marks. The area may feel firm or slightly uneven for a few weeks while the filler settles.
Less common but serious: infection, an allergic reaction, or filler blocking a blood vessel (vascular occlusion), which needs treatment straight away. Your practitioner will go through these with you at consultation.
Contact us immediately, or seek urgent medical help, if you notice severe or worsening pain, skin that turns pale, blotchy, dusky or blue, any change in your vision, or signs of infection such as heat, spreading redness or fever.
FAQs
Your questions answered
Does it hurt?
Most fillers contain a local anaesthetic and we can use numbing cream, so most people feel only mild pressure or stinging.
Is the filler reversible?
Hyaluronic acid filler can be dissolved with an enzyme called hyaluronidase if needed. Your practitioner will explain when this might be used.
Is there any downtime?
Most people go back to normal activities the same day. Swelling and bruising are possible for a few days, so plan around any big events.
