Cheek Contouring & Lifting: Sculpt, Lift & Restore  Volume

Cheek contouring is a non-surgical cosmetic treatment designed to lift, define, and rejuvenate the mid-face. As we age, volume loss in the cheeks and surrounding areas can lead to sagging, flattening, and the development of nasolabial folds and jowls. At Mapp Aesthetics, we offer customised cheek contouring treatments to restore volume, enhance facial harmony, and give you a refreshed, sculpted appearance.

What is Cheek Contouring?

Cheek contouring involves the precise placement of medical products to restore volume and redefine the structure of the mid-face. This procedure is designed to:

• Lift sagging cheeks and restore volume that naturally diminishes with age.
• Enhance cheekbones to create a more sculpted, defined look.
• Improve facial symmetry, creating harmony between the cheeks, jawline, and chin.
• Restore youthful contours that help reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles.

Unlike traditional surgical facelifts, cheek contouring is a minimally invasive procedure that can deliver immediate and long-lasting results with minimal downtime.

The Medical Science Behind Cheek Contouring

Cheek contouring is based on the principles of restoring facial volume lost due to natural ageing processes and lifestyle factors. As we age, our body’s collagen production decreases, leading to a loss of skin elasticity and volume in key areas of the face, especially the cheeks. The fat pads in the cheek area begin to shrink and shift downward, which can result in a more hollow, gaunt appearance.

Studies show that restoring volume to the mid-face with targeted treatments can improve skin texture, reduce the appearance of wrinkles, and provide an overall rejuvenated appearance. By strategically adding volume to the cheekbones and the surrounding areas, it is possible to achieve a more youthful, lifted, and balanced profile.

How Does Cheek Contouring Work?

The procedure involves the careful placement of medical products into the skin and underlying tissues of the cheeks. Our team uses advanced techniques to target specific areas of volume loss, focusing on the:

• Cheek hollows: Restoring volume to the mid-face, improving hollowed-out or flat cheeks.

2. Immediate Results with Long-Lasting Benefits
   Most clients see noticeable improvement right after treatment, with full results visible within a week. Results can last anywhere from 12 to 18 months, depending on individual factors like skin type, age, and lifestyle.
3. Restored Youthful Volume
   By restoring volume in key areas of the mid-face, cheek contouring helps combat the effects of ageing and gravity. This results in a refreshed and youthful appearance.
4. Enhanced Facial Definition and Symmetry
   Contouring the cheeks can also help improve facial balance and proportion, creating a more harmonious look that enhances both the upper and lower face.

What to Expect During a Cheek Contouring Session

1. Consultation
Your treatment begins with a thorough consultation with one of our expert clinicians. We’ll evaluate your facial structure, discuss your aesthetic goals, and assess your medical history to ensure that cheek contouring is right for you.

2. Treatment Plan
Based on your goals and facial anatomy, we will develop a customised treatment plan to target specific areas of volume loss or sagging. We use advanced mapping techniques to ensure precise placement of the product for optimal results.

3. The Procedure
The treatment itself typically takes between 30 minutes to 1 hour. A topical numbing cream is applied to minimise discomfort, and the procedure is virtually painless. The clinician will inject the product into specific areas of the cheeks, using a series of small injections to deliver the best results.

4. Aftercare & Recovery
Immediately following the procedure, you may experience some mild swelling, redness, or bruising. These side effects typically subside within a few days. Most patients return to their normal activities immediately, though we recommend avoiding strenuous exercise and direct sun exposure for the first 24 hours.

How Long Will the Results Last?

The results of cheek contouring are designed to be long-lasting, but they aren’t permanent. Typically, results last anywhere from 12 to 18 months, depending on factors such as the product used, your skin's individual response, and your lifestyle. Many clients opt for touch-up treatments to maintain their desired look over time.
