Quick answer · What is Cheek Fillers?
Cheek fillers are hyaluronic acid injections placed in the mid-face to restore volume lost with age or weight change, or to add soft contour to flat cheeks. Firmer gel placed deep near the cheekbone also offers gentle support to the folds below. A session takes about 20–40 minutes, with mild swelling for a few days, and results usually last 12–18 months.

How it works
Structural volume at the right depth
Cheek filler is usually placed deep, close to the bone, where a firmer gel can support the overlying tissue. Restoring this foundation can lift the mid-face, soften nasolabial folds and make the face look less tired, without the round, overfilled look that comes from too much product.
-
Facial mapping
Your doctor assesses volume loss from the front and side and marks the points to treat. Numbing cream is applied.
-
Deep placement
Filler is placed in small amounts near the cheekbone or in the soft mid-cheek, by needle or cannula.
-
Shape & settle
Your doctor checks symmetry; the filler settles naturally over one to two weeks.
Before & after

FAQ
Cheek Fillers questions we hear every day
Do cheek fillers hurt?
Most patients feel pressure and mild stinging. Numbing cream and lidocaine in the filler keep it comfortable.
Will cheek filler make my face look bigger?
Not when it is placed conservatively. Your doctor focuses on restoring structure rather than adding bulk, which tends to make the face look lifted rather than wider.
How long do cheek fillers last?
Cheek filler is placed deep in a low-movement area, so results usually last about 12–18 months.
Is there downtime?
Mild swelling, tenderness or small bruises can last a few days. Most patients wear makeup and go out the next day.
Cheek filler or Juvelook Volume?
Hyaluronic acid filler gives immediate, reversible volume, while Juvelook Volume builds volume gradually through collagen. Your doctor can advise which suits your skin.
How much do cheek fillers cost in Myeongdong?
Price depends on the number of syringes needed. The same price list applies to every nationality and is given to you in writing before treatment. See our filler and botox price list.
