What Is Cheekbone Filler and Why Is It Done?
Cheekbone filler is an aesthetic procedure used to define the facial contour, give the face a more balanced look and replace volume lost with age. Over time the fat under the skin decreases and collagen is lost, and volume can be lost in the face. This can make the face look more tired and hollow.
What Is Cheekbone Filler Used For?
- Defining the facial contour
- Creating more proportionate facial lines
- Reducing a hollow look
- Giving the face a younger look
- Supporting mild sagging

Which Products Are Used?
In the cheekbone area, hyaluronic acid fillers (Harmonyca) or Radiesse, which stimulates collagen, are generally chosen. Because Radiesse stimulates collagen, it can give both an immediate and a gradual support in the cheekbone area.

Looking at the Whole Face
Cheekbone filler targets volume in the cheek area and does not correct structural concerns such as the shape of the nose or sagging eyelids. For changes like these, surgical options such as rhinoplasty in Ankara or eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) may be discussed. Your whole face is assessed at the consultation, and the method that suits you is chosen together.
