Which is the best option for Cheek Augmentation? - Dr. Ashok B C

Cheek augmentation can be done for various reasons. If it is a bony defect, then we need to put an implant. But if it is a soft tissue defect, we can do a filler or a fat fill. The difference between filler or a fat fill is in filler, we take a synthetic material, which we take off the shelf and inject it under the skin. Though it is much less painful than a fat fill, it is temporary. But if you take your own body fat and fill it, it more permanent. As far as cheek bone defects are concerned, it is good to go ahead and put an implant. So it increases the cheek prominence.
