CHEEK AUGMENTATION
When patients walk into Dr. Sagar Gujjar’s office for the first time, many of them want to know how their favourite celebrities maintain a sculpted, lifted, and youthful facial appearance, even as they age. Board-certified dermatologist and facial sculpting expert, Dr. Gujjar credits cheek augmentation with fillers for many of those famous age-defying, novelesque cheeks. In his experience, one of the quickest ways to make your signature features “pop” is to heighten and define the cheekbones. Dr. Gujjar offers several options for cheek augmentation, including fillers, at his Bandra West medical practice.
WHAT IS CHEEK AUGMENTATION?
Cosmetic cheek augmentation procedures aim to enhance the cheekbones to restore youthful facial contours. As we age (thanks to gravity, stress, hormones, and a host of other factors), our faces begin to lose shape, contour, and volume. The skin begins to sag, and fine lines and wrinkles become more prominent. As evidenced by television personalities and film stars who maintain their elevated, sculpted cheeks, cheek augmentation can dramatically improve your facial appearance.Dr. Gujjar has over a decade of experience as a facial sculpting specialist and is skilled in numerous methods of cheek enhancement. He often recommends dermal fillers to help his patients achieve a more youthful look.

Juvederm Voluma is the go-to, gold standard HA filler for cheek augmentation. Voluma is FDA-approved for midface volume loss and is also used laterally on the cheeks to provide definition, enhancement, and lift. Upon injection, Voluma fills the tissue and plumps up the cheek. Over time, water fills the area, surrounding the filler and providing improvement in contour, shape, and lift. Dr. Gujjar also uses Voluma to treat the lips, smile lines, jawline, and temples. Patients may experience minimal swelling for up to two weeks after treatment, and the results last for up to two years after injection. However, younger, active, and athletic patients tend to metabolize HA fillers more rapidly with weight or hormonal changes, exercise, and dieting, so fillers like Juvederm Voluma may require more frequent touch-ups to maintain the results on SCHEDULE CONSULTATION
IS THERE DOWNTIME WITH CHEEK AUGMENTATION?
There is no downtime for cheek augmentation with injectable fillers. While you may experience some redness and/or swelling in the area for a few days following the procedure, you can return to your daily activities immediately. Bruising, swelling, and/or irritation can occur up to two weeks after any injectable treatment.
ARE CHEEK FILLERS FOR MEN TOO?
Yes! An experienced and skilled injector like Dr. Gujjar recognizes that men and women often have different aesthetic goals and therefore require different techniques. Because Dr. Gujjar addresses the whole face in a single treatment (and not just a single feature), he will often balance a male patient’s cheek lift or cheek augmentation with projection of the jaw and chin, creating a wider, more square, and more defined masculine jawline.
RIGHT FOR YOU?
CHEEK AUGMENTATION WITH FILLERS
According to Dr. Sagar Gujjar, sculpting with fillers is a painless, non-surgical approach to reclaiming your facial contours. Cheekbone chiselling with dermal fillers is a safe and effective treatment that can help enhance your features without the cost or downtime involved in a surgical facelift, facial implants, or fat injections. Cheek fillers are a great option for many patients and are often ideal for those with longer, thinner faces.
In addition to providing lift, definition, and contouring in the midface, fillers can also improve the under-eye area, the nasolabial folds (or smile lines), and fine lines and wrinkles. The result is a less tired, well-rested appearance and a more youthful beauty.

CHEEK FILLERS: THE DR. GUJJAR DIFFERENCE
Each dermal filler has its own distinct purposes and advantages. Just as an artist selects the perfect materials for his sculpture, Dr. Gujjar puts his experience and unique artistry to work by crafting a patient-specific treatment plan and choosing the best filler(s) to produce the desired results.
“Thicker” fillers, such as Juvederm Voluma offer a substantial volume increase or noticeable lifting in areas that tend to fall or droop as we age, such as the cheeks. To achieve optimal improvements, Dr. Gujjar visualizes a line from the corner of the lip to the ear, which he uses as a guide. Dr. Gujjar then injects the carefully selected filler under the cheek pad (where we all tend to lose height).
He uses a specialized layering technique that involves deep injections along the cheekbone to give lift and lateral contour. He follows the initial injections with superficial injections in the fat and skin layer to soften the nasolabial folds, shape the under eye, and improve the area around the eye and eyebrow. Dr. Gujjar is meticulous about understanding each patient’s goals and injecting each filler strategically without making the patient appear unnatural or “overdone.”
