WHAT ARE CHEEK FILLERS?

Expertly placed cheek dermal fillers can lift and rejuvenate sagging, flattened cheeks, and help soften the look of nose-to-mouth lines, This type of dermal filler treatment is particularly transformative in cases of aging or significant facial weight loss. At Dr Leah Clinics, our cosmetic doctors use top-quality Dermal Fillers for this purpose. This treatment, with minimal downtime, allows clients to quickly return to their daily routines.

Cheek fillers not only add volume to cheeks that have become gaunt or lost fullness with age but also create a more defined cheekbone, enhancing facial contours. Additionally, these fillers can be combined with Ultherapy, Silhouette Soft threads, Morpheus8 and other  Dr Leah Clinic facial treatments like anti-wrinkle injections for an overall youthful and refreshed appearance.

Cheek Fillers Reviews

Here’s what our clients have to say…
Dr Ana is my doctor at Moorgate clinic, she gives me beautiful cheekbones, defined like a supermodel and perfect symmetry! I feel so much prettier after I see her, thank you Dr Ana!

Anastacia, 37
I recently had cheek fillers with Dr Leah and cannot recommend her more highly. The consultation was great and she knew exactly what needed to be done to "lift" my face. The procedure was so quick and pretty painless. Two days on my face has completely settled, looks completely natural and I have had so many compliments on how "fresh" I look! The best money I spent and so happy with the results.

Lynn, 35
Cheek fillers with Dr Manav in Loughton clinic was a very positive experience, he is very professional and explained everything in detail, I knew I was in safe hands, I didn’t want anyone to know I had treatment and was terrified of looking ‘overdone’ but the results are excellent and I look better without anyone being able to pinpoint why. Brilliant service, thank you.

Lynn, 42
Dr Sheila does my under eye filler and cheek fillers together once per year and the results are amazing. I would recommend anyone to see her, she can do wonders on your face. I look better now than I did 10 years ago!

Sandy, 35
