Cheek fillers in Dubai are a safe and popular non-surgical solution for restoring balance, definition, and youthful plumpness to the face. At Altaderma Clinic, each treatment is performed by skilled specialists with an emphasis on precision and natural-looking results. Whether you want to lift your mid-face, define your contours, or simply bring back lost volume, cheek fillers offer subtle enhancement while keeping your expressions soft and genuine.
What cheek fillers are and how they work
Cheek fillers are injectable gels that are commonly formed of hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring ingredient in the skin that retains moisture and increases volume. These fillers are delicately injected beneath the skin to raise the cheeks, restore lost volume, improve skin hydration and enhance the natural curvature of your face.
The cheek fillers process is minimally invasive, lasting only a short session and requiring no surgery. Most people can resume their normal routine right away after cheek fillers, making it a perfect option for anyone with a hectic schedule.
Ideal candidates for cheek filler treatment
Cheek fillers are appropriate for people who have lost facial volume, show signs of moderate sagging or want to improve shape and symmetry. You could be an excellent candidate for cheek fillers if:
- Notice flat or sunken cheeks
- Want to improve facial proportion and balance
- Prefer a non-surgical, fast procedure
- Have realistic expectations about the outcome
How the treatment is performed
To begin the cheek filler procedure, we use an anaesthetic injection (a dental block) to fully numb the area before administering filler. Furthermore, lidocaine, an ingredient in the fillers we use, numbs the region being filled while the injection is being administered. This ensures the patient feels no pain and experiences less bruising than with topical numbing creams alone. The specialist then injects small amounts of filler into the desired places to improve form and volume.
There are several types of fillers, but the most popular are hyaluronic acid-based treatments, which are known for their safety and smooth texture. The filler choice and injection technique are customized to your facial shape and desired results.
We use the premium filler Restylane – known for its power to define and restore a youthful-looking radiance by reclaiming a subtle, natural-looking cheek contour
Dr. Maria Khattar, Altaderma Clinic’s Managing Director, is an official trainer and key opinion leader for Restylane in the Middle East – so you can be confident that you are in the safest of hands when undergoing your treatment.
All treatments are either FDA approved or CE-marked and are approved by the Ministry of Health – UAE.
Expected results and recovery
Results from cheek fillers are visible immediately after treatment. You’ll notice a gentle lift, improved definition, and a youthful fullness to your mid-face. Minor swelling or redness is common and typically fades within a few days, revealing a natural, refreshed appearance.
Recovery is minimal. After your cheek filler session at Altaderma Clinic, you can return to your usual activities right away. For best results:
- Avoid touching or pressing the treated area for 24 hours.
- Applying ice to the treated area for a few hours
- Skip intense exercise for two days.
- Stay hydrated and use gentle skincare products.
These steps help your filler settle properly and maintain an even, smooth result.
Duration and maintenance of results
The results of cheek fillers generally last 12 to 18 months, depending on the filler type, your metabolism, and lifestyle habits. Many clients prefer to schedule annual maintenance sessions to sustain their desired look and ensure consistent volume over time.
Safety and risk minimisation
When performed by experienced professionals, cheek fillers are considered very safe. Minor swelling, mild discomfort, or temporary unevenness may occur but typically resolve quickly. Choosing a trusted clinic and qualified injectors is essential to ensuring the best and safest outcome.
At Altaderma Clinic, every procedure is carried out under strict medical standards, using high-quality products and precise techniques that respect your natural facial anatomy.
The beauty of subtle enhancement
Cheek fillers are not about changing your face – they’re about refining and enhancing your natural beauty. With expertly performed injections, they restore youthful contours, soften tired features, and create elegant, balanced proportions that complement your individual look. Strategic placement of the filler can also give a lifting effect.
At Altaderma Clinic, each cheek filler treatment is customised to your unique features, combining artistry with medical expertise to achieve a smooth, refreshed, and naturally radiant appearance.
