Will cheek implants improve my flat cheeks?

Question:
I’ve always had very flat cheeks and have envied those with nice high cheekbones. Would implants be a good way to improve my flat cheeks? Are there any other options like fillers?

Answer:
There are several options to inflate cheeks. They include implants, fillers or autologous fat. In young patients who are looking for a large increase in cheek size an implant is a good option. For patients who are looking for a more subtle result fillers or fat are a good options. For patients who have only lost volume fillers or fat are the best options.
