How Many Cheek Fillers Do I Need?

As you age, you lose facial volume. Beginning in your 20s, you start to lose approximately one percent every year. So, it’s natural to want to get back what you’ve lost.

While you can’t get back the fat and bone you’ve lost, you can turn to dermal fillers to bring back volume. Cheek fillers are a great non-surgical way to regain the curvy youth of your face.

If you’re considering this treatment then you might be asking, “How many cheek fillers do I need?” Here’s the scoop, plus answers to more of your burning questions!

What Are Fillers, and How Do They Work?

Dermal fillers like Restylane are cosmetic injectables typically made from hyaluronic acid. Their function is to plump, restore, hydrate, and rejuvenate.

Most regard fillers as a way to reduce wrinkles, but they can also create facial symmetry and restore volume in sunken cheeks.

What Areas of My Cheeks Benefit from Fillers?

There are two areas on your cheeks that fillers work on: mid and lateral. The mid-cheek is the area under the eyes, and the lateral is the larger area that when droopy causes the appearance of jowls.

So, How Many Cheek Fillers Do I Need? 

This depends on the look you’re after. If you want fuller cheeks, you’ll need more filler. In general, you can get really awesome results with only three to four mLs of dermal filler.

How Long Will I Need to Wait to See Results?

You don’t! Results are noticeable right away. Once injected, fillers need time to settle, but it doesn’t take very long. You should look forward to seeing the final results within two weeks.
