Advanced Cheek Augmentation Tulsa, OK | Tulsa Surgical Arts

Understanding Cheek Augmentation

Prominent cheekbones are associated with a youthful and attractive appearance. At Tulsa Surgical Arts, Dr. Angelo Cuzalina performs surgical and nonsurgical cheek augmentation to restore volume in the skin. Mid-face augmentation can be accomplished using temporary injectable fillers or longer-lasting cheek implants.

Ideal Candidates for Cheek Enhancement

Candidates for cheek augmentation typically include individuals who:

• Want more contour in their mid-face
• Experience lost volume in their cheeks with age
• Have naturally flat or hollow cheeks
• Lost significant weight, resulting in deflated cheeks
• Notice mid-face asymmetry
• Maintain good overall health

Cheek Augmentation Procedures

Dermal Filler Injections

Injectable dermal filler sessions typically take 20-30 minutes. The procedure involves marking injection sites, cleaning the skin, and carefully injecting and massaging dermal fillers to achieve an even, natural result.

Cheek Implant Surgery

Cheek augmentation with implants is an outpatient procedure performed under anesthesia. Dr. Cuzalina creates small incisions in the upper gums, creates a pocket over the cheekbones, and securely places titanium-fixed implants. The entire procedure takes approximately one hour.

Benefits of Cheek Augmentation

• Produces elevated, more voluminous cheeks
• Enhances facial appearance and balance
• Creates a more youthful look
• Personalized treatment options
• Long-lasting improvements

Recovery and Results

Patients can expect some swelling and bruising for 1-2 weeks after the procedure. Immediate results are visible, with approximately 80% of final results apparent after one month. Patients should avoid strenuous activity for 7-10 days to ensure proper healing.

Customized Treatment Options

Tulsa Surgical Arts offers multiple approaches to cheek augmentation, including dermal fillers like JUVÉDERM® VOLUMA™ XC and surgical implants. During the initial consultation, Dr. Cuzalina will discuss the most suitable options based on individual aesthetic goals.
