Cheek Filler

Most people find this treatment to be perfectly comfortable. It is unlikely you experience any pain during treatment. Dr. Rupert is a highly experienced injector, and will always aim to ensure you are as comfortable as possible. For men who have a low tolerance to pain or high levels of sensitivity, Dr. Rupert will apply a topical numbing prior to treatment, mitigating the chance of discomfort.

As with any injectable treatment, there is a possibility of some minor side effects. Most commonly, these may include: bruising, swelling, redness, tenderness, itching and sensitivity at the point of application. Rarely, cheek fillers may leave behind small lumps under the surface of the skin, If this occurs, please contact the practice as soon as you notice the onset of any lumps. This is so that Dr. Rupert can assess you, and dissolve the filler if necessary. This symptom is rare, but we believe it is important that our patients are fully aware of any potential side effects prior to treatment. All concerns and risks will be addressed at a pre-treatment consultation.

The purpose of cheek fillers are to help alleviate the gaunt look that can be a symptom of ageing, restore lost volume to the face, and help eradicate tired looking faces.
