Have you ever looked in the mirror and thought, “Why do I look so tired?” Sunken cheeks can have that effect. Your face may lack that bit of volume it used to have, making your look harder or more tired. The good news? You can approach this in a subtle and safe way, without it immediately being visible that you have had anything done.
Your face changes over time, that's just the case. Subcutaneous fat tissue slowly loses volume, and the skin becomes less elastic. This causes your cheeks to sag slightly, and that can affect your appearance. For some people, this is very gradual, while others notice it more quickly, for example after weight loss. This can cause a sunken face, which sometimes gives a strict look.
Lifestyle also plays a role. Too little sleep, stress, or a busy period can make your face look tighter and more tired. It feels like your face no longer matches your energy. Fortunately, you don't have to keep walking around with this, as there are ways to subtly reduce that volume. For example, filling in the cheeks, which provides a subtle improvement and can help you regain a fresh look.
Filling cheeks is suitable for anyone who feels that their appearance no longer matches how they feel. You may notice that your face looks a little harder due to loss of volume, or you may see shadows where you didn't have them before. This is common among people who lose weight, age, or simply have a natural predisposition to sunken cheeks.
A filler treatment is perfect for those who want a subtle, natural improvement. The goal is not to change everything, but to make your appearance softer and fresher. As a result, many people feel better about themselves again, without the result looking unnatural.
A filler treatment may sound complicated, but it is not. During a consultation, you will discuss with the cosmetic doctor what you would like to achieve.
Together, you will look at areas where volume is needed, for example along the cheekbones or in the top of your cheeks. The doctor uses a hyaluronic acid filler, a safe substance that retains moisture and restores volume.
The filler is placed with a small injection, usually after a local anaesthetic so that the treatment is comfortable. The entire process often takes no more than 30 minutes. Before you know it, you're done already, and the best part is: you can see the difference immediately. People who choose to treat sunken cheeks often quickly notice how their appearance softens.
What's great about fillers is that the effect is immediately visible. Your cheeks look fuller and your face looks softer. The effect is subtle enough that people only notice you look good, but not immediately why. A slight swelling or some bruising may occur, but they often disappear within a few days.
The effects last for months, depending on the filler used and your skin type. Because hyaluronic acid fillers attract moisture, your skin also looks healthier and more hydrated.
Do you want to keep the result? Then you can easily repeat the treatment later. For many, filling in the cheeks remains an ideal way to freshen up their face.
Many people choose hyaluronic acid fillers because of their safety and natural results. Hyaluronic acid is a substance produced by the body, which means that the risk of allergic reactions is small. In addition, fillers are slowly broken down by the body, so that the effect gradually fades away.
Another advantage is that there is no need for a long recovery time. You can often continue with your daily activities the same day. With an experienced treating doctor, you can be sure that safe fillers from premium brands are being used, which guarantees both the result and your safety.
Filling up your sunken cheeks does more than just restore volume. It also accentuates your cheekbones, giving your face a nice, balanced shape. Shadows disappear, and your skin gets a softer appearance. This not only makes you look fresher, but also makes you feel more secure.
The best part is that the result remains subtle. It's not about big changes, but about small adjustments that make a big difference. Many people say they feel more comfortable after treatment because their appearance is more in line with how they feel.
