How to Manage Styes and Recurring Chalazions
Look Good, Feel Good CHEEK FILLERS 101
WHAT ARE THE SIDE EFFECTS? Most individuals experience minimal to no complications, with common side effects like bruising or swelling subsiding within several days. To allow the filler to settle correctly, patients should avoid touching or applying pressure to the treated area, refrain from using ice, and attempt to sleep on their backs for the first few days. WHAT ARE THE RESULTS? Many patients are thrilled with the results, enjoying a rejuvenated appearance that feels natural and brings out their confidence. It’s hard for someone to pin down exactly what we did because it’s very subtle. This treatment is prevalent among individuals experiencing facial volume loss due to aging or rapid weight loss. And the results can last from a year to 18 months, offering a long-term solution without surgery.
One common sign of aging is the appearance of a hollow or thumbprint area below the cheekbone extending toward the nose. This indentation can make the face appear older. Fortunately, cheek fillers can be remarkably effective with enhancing facial contours and to address signs of aging. The procedure can revitalize the area, providing a fuller, more youthful look. It not only improves the contour of the cheek but also lifts sagging skin and smoothes out lines. WHAT IS THE TREATMENT PROCESS? The treatment process is relatively quick, typically taking only 15–20 minutes to complete. After thoroughly cleaning the skin, the filler is injected into the targeted area(s). It is important to note that pregnant women should avoid this procedure, and any individual with acne should clear up their skin before undergoing this treatment.
The low risk of complications and the non-surgical nature of the procedure make it an attractive option for those looking to enhance their facial features.
