Cheek Enhancement Before & Afters
Results may vary from patient to patient. Photographs show individual outcomes and are not a guarantee of results.
Cheek filler procedure
The cheek filler procedure typically begins with an anaesthetic injection to minimise discomfort. The filler product itself contains anaesthetic, and a blunt cannula is used to help reduce potential bruising and enhance patient comfort, though individual experiences may vary. During the treatment, the filler is carefully placed to add volume and structure to the cheeks. This method is designed to minimise bruising and swelling, offering a precise and controlled application.
Pricing
Cheek filler costs can vary based on the individual treatment, but typically starts from $350, with initial consultation prices starting at $120 (but redeemable upon treatment). The Cosmos Clinic team uses a trusted brand of filler for mid and lower face treatments, consistently delivering reliable outcomes. In addition to the cheeks, this filler can also be used to treat other areas, including the chin, nasolabial folds, under-eye, nose, and lips. For a tailored approach, consultations are available to assess your needs and recommend the most suitable treatment options.
Cheek Filler Recovery Timeline
Cheek filler treatments can provide noticeable results shortly after the procedure, with final outcomes typically visible about a week after any swelling subsides. These results often last 18–24 months, though individual experiences may vary. Recovery and Aftercare
- Swelling: Mild swelling is common for the first 2 days but may last up to a week in some cases.
- Bruising: Any bruising can usually be concealed with makeup.
- Lumps: Rare when performed by an experienced injector, and easily dissolved with a simple injection if a non-permanent filler is used.
Potential Risks and Complications
While cheek filler treatments are generally safe, they do carry some potential risks. These include:
- Swelling or Bruising: Temporary and typically resolves within a few days to a week.
- Infection: Rare but possible; it is important to keep the treated area clean.
- Asymmetry: Slight unevenness in results, which may require correction.
- Lumps or Nodules: Rare, but treatable if they occur.
- Skin Discolouration: Temporary redness or changes in skin tone around the injection site.
- Allergic Reaction: Uncommon, but possible with certain products.
- Vascular Complications: In very rare cases, filler may accidentally enter a blood vessel, leading to more serious side effects.
To minimise risks, it’s important to have the procedure performed by a qualified and experienced professional. Your doctor or injector will provide detailed aftercare instructions to support recovery and optimise results.

Frequently asked
As we age, our cheeks become hollow and lose volume. The fat pad that sits in the cheek area moves south, leaving a hollow area in the cheeks. Cheeks can be enhanced using Volume Enhancement Treatments. We use the thickest form of the Volume Enhancement Treatment, which is a smooth injectable gel that is made from a natural complex sugar (hyaluronic acid).
Naturally occurring in human skin, this also assists in skin hydration by attracting and holding water. It is specially formulated to be used deep in the skin to add natural looking volume to the mid-face and cheek bone area. Because this is the thickest Volume Enhancement Treatment, it gives the best lifting effect and is best at restoring facial volume.
The Cheek Enhancement procedure first involves a small anaesthetic injection to numb the area.The Volume Enhancement Treatment is then used to augment the cheeks. During this cosmetic procedure, a blunt cannula is used to enhance the cheeks, while minimising potential discomfort and bruising.
The Cosmos team have been using the same brand of Volume Enhancement Treatment for mid and lower face enhancements since its launch with amazing results. Additionally, Volume Enhancement Treatments can be used on other facial areas at the same time as on the cheeks. They can be used to treat the chin, nasolabial folds, eye area (tear trough), the nose, and during a lip enhancement.
The incorporation of anaesthetic into the injectable fillers, and the use of a blunt needle, makes the procedure much more comfortable with minimal patient discomfort.
You will have mild swelling for approximately 2 days; although in some cases, this can persist for up to 1 week. The swelling or bruising can easily be covered with make up should you need it. Lumps are rare when performed by a professionally trained Volume Enhancement Treatment injector and can be dissolved with a simple injection when a non-permanent filler is used.
You can expect to receive instant, natural looking and long lasting results with this filler treatment. In most cases, the final results of cheek fillers will be evident approximately 1 week after the swelling subsides. This will last 18 – 24 months. (*Results may vary from patient to patient).
During clinical trials of Volume Enhancement Treatments, no patients discontinued the study due to lack of effect or any adverse side effects. Recorded adverse events were usually temporary injection site reactions, and the majority of which lasted only three days or less.
Patients sometimes experience injection site redness, pain, firmness/hardness, swelling, lumps/bumps, bruising, itching and discolouration.
