Before any cheekbone injections, a personalized medical consultation is conducted. The doctor analyzes the facial structure, skin quality, existing volume, and discusses the desired result with the patient. This step is essential to guarantee a customized outcome.
The treatment then proceeds in several stages. After careful disinfection of the area, an anesthetic cream may be applied to ensure maximum comfort. The doctor then injects the hyaluronic acid using fine needles or cannulas, depending on the chosen technique.
The injections are quick and generally last between 15 and 30 minutes . The product is placed deep within the skin to restore support to the cheekbones and achieve a natural look. The result is immediately visible, although slight swelling may occur in the first few days.
After the session, it is advisable to avoid strenuous exercise, excessive heat, and massages for a few days. The after-effects are generally mild, sometimes with minor redness or temporary bruising.
The results of cheekbone injections last on average 12 to 18 months , depending on the product used, the patient's metabolism and lifestyle.
