The cheeks play a significant role in defining an attractive face. Well-defined cheeks have been recognized as a hallmark of beauty. Adding the sufficient volume to the cheeks can improve the facial contour and one can have a youthful appearance.
Aesthetic procedures like cheek augmentation or cheek implant restores a more youthful appearance by using either fat, fillers or implants. Owing to the advantages, cheek augmentation is becoming one of the popular facial plastic surgeries in India. Face plastic surgery in India is done at state-of the art hospitals that are well equipped with the latest technology and infrastructure to give the best results in plastic surgery.

If your cheeks are sunken and hollow and you are looking for plumper, more accentuated cheeks, are above 18, physically fit and mentally stable and have realistic expectations, you are a good candidate for the cheek augmentation.
There are a number of options available in India for cheek augmentation to suit your needs. Some of them are listed below:
Cheek implant surgery: In this technique, the surgeon uses solid silicone implants to achieve the look of firmer cheeks.
Soft tissue cheek fillers: The soft tissue cheek fillers (collagen or restylane) are temporary alternatives and are less invasive than solid implants.
Fat grafting: In this technique, fat is extracted from some part of the body through liposuction, then processed to and is placed to add volume to the cheek area. This also eliminates the possibility of rejection.
This procedure is commonly combined with other procedures such as facelift or chin augmentation.
The surgeon begins by making an incision-the usual choice for incisions for cheek implants is either in the natural lines of the lower eyelashes to avoid any scars or inside the mouth at the junction of gums and lips.
A pocket is created following the incision in the facial tissue.
The implant is then inserted in the pocket and the incision sutured.
You can return to work and other normal activities within a week after the cheek implants or cheek augmentation surgery. You will have to avoid vigorous activities which can involve rough contact of the surgery site for at least six to eight weeks.
The results shall be appreciable after five to six weeks after the swelling subsides. You shall see better contours in your face with defined and prominent cheeks harmonious and in proportion with your other facial features.
We at IndiCure completely understand your concerns and it is always our endeavor to provide the best outcome for every patient. Following is the list of questions you must ask before you embark on your journey for Cheek Augmentation surgery in India.
Prepare to answer questions about your:
Cheek Augmentation is quite a popular procedure among people in Mexico, Central and South America. Calf implant surgery is commonly performed in both men and women. Unfortunately, many orthopedic surgeons and family physicians who see patients with a deformed or hypoplastic leg are not aware that augmentation can be performed.
You will have some pain and bruising which will last for a few days after the procedure. Keep your legs elevated which will help reduce the swelling. You will feel heaviness in your legs for the first few days and walking will be a little difficult, which will improve during the second week and thereafter. You will be able to return to normal activities in about 2 weeks, while exercising and rigorous work will have to wait for at least 6-8 weeks.
Fat transfer to calves is an option for people with a good amount of fat available from the donor sites- viz. your abdomen, thighs, arms, hips or buttocks from where the fat can be harvested. The advantage of fat transfer is that your own body fat is being used, so there are nil chances of rejection or infection. But the results may not be as pronounced as implants and a touch up may be required.
You can discuss the pros and cons of both the procedures- fat transfer to calves vs Cheek Augmentation with your surgeon to make an informed decision.
Yes, you can run and do other exercises and work out after 8-10 weeks of the procedure or as directed by your surgeon.
