The mediofacial area, which also includes the cheekbones, is one of the areas that always attracts our attention and is among the first areas to undergo changes with age, due to loss of bone support and changes in deep structures: muscles, fat compartments, ligaments, etc.

Thus we lose volume from the cheekbones, the skin becomes looser, the nasal grooves are accentuated and the face has a drooping, aged appearance.

The injection of hyaluronic acid at the cheekbones is a non-surgical medical procedure that aims to restore the contour and harmonize the features of the face.

Well-defined, prominent cheekbones have always been considered a symbol of beauty and create a balance on the face.

During the consultation, all aspects related to the procedure for injecting the cheekbones, indications, contraindications and risks will be discussed and detailed, and an evaluation of the patient will be made.

Apply a local anesthetic cream for 25 minutes on the cheekbones, disinfect the area and inject deep hyaluronic acid with a cannula or a fine needle.

Depending on the particularities of each patient's physiognomy, depending on the patient's sex, it will be decided exactly which are the points where we position the hyaluronic acid and the amount injected to obtain a more natural look both at rest and in dynamics.

For a contouring effect, the procedure can be combined with the injection of hyaluronic acid in the mandibular line and chin.
