How to Lift Cheeks Without Surgery

Achieving a youthful, lifted appearance doesn’t always require going under the knife. Non-surgical cheek lifting techniques have become increasingly popular for their effectiveness and minimal downtime. There are many options like dermal fillers can restore lost volume and contour the cheeks, creating a natural lift. PDO threads lift provide a subtle yet noticeable lifting effect by stimulating collagen production and repositioning sagging tissue.

These non-invasive solutions offer a safe and convenient way to rejuvenate your face while maintaining a natural look. Following are several introductions of cheeks without surgery

Thread lifting: fast lifting, natural and not exaggerated effect

Thread lifting is a new technology to lift cheeks without surgery. The procedures is implants absorbable threads under the skin to lift skin tissue and reshape contours. Commonly used threads such as PDO, PCL or PLLA not only have good biocompatibility, but also stimulate collagen regeneration.

Advantages:

The cog thread in the facial lifting thread has the advantage of immediate lifting effect, especially for those with sagging cheeks and deep nasolabial folds;

These facial operations have the characteristics of short recovery period and no need for surgery;

The collagen threads can stimulate the production of collagen, PCL and PLLA Threads last longer (about 12-18 months);

Case sharing:

A 35-year-old woman had a 5-thread cog thread implantation at the doctor's suggestion because her cheeks began to sag and the contours were blurred. The contours were immediately improved after the operation, and collagen was generated 1 month later, the apple muscles were naturally full.

Hyaluronic acid fillers bringing support and fullness

Hyaluronic acid injection is the normally way for cheek lift without surgery.

This injection restores cheek fullness by filling facial depressions, while also playing a certain role in "lifting" support.

Areas of use:

• It can be used for filling depressed facial areas, making the face fuller and smooth.
• It is injected at upper end of nasolabial folds and relieve the folds.
• It can correct the shape of chin and jawline.

Hyaluronic acid is common in beauty clinics, and injections are simple, safe, and almost without a downtime.

And these injections can immediately improve collapse and blurred contours.

In addition, hyaluronic acid injections can also be combined with thread lift and other treatments to enhance the effect.

Precautions:

The type of hyaluronic acid fillers needs to be selected according to the cheek support to avoid "displacement" or "swelling"

The design of the injection point requires professional doctors to avoid swelling or unnaturalness

Botulinum toxin injection---a weapon for indirect "lifting"

Botox mainly relaxes the sagging muscles of the face to indirectly achieve the effect of lifting muscle tension. It is often used to adjust the muscle antagonism group related to "lifting".

Application principle

As we  age, some muscles would pull the face down (such as the platysma, depressor anguli oris, zygomaticus major, etc.). It would cause the face to sag. After Botox injection, these muscles relax and the downward pull on the face is reduced, the face will become tight, achieving a slight face lift.

In some cases, it can be used to improve "smile muscle droop" or "nasolabial fold elongation".

Advantages

In addition to hyaluronic acid filler injection, another popular operation is botox injection, which is simple to operate and lasts for 3-6 months.

It can locally adjust the expression lines and improve "bitter face" and "drooping feeling".

Lift and Tighten with Ultrasound Lifting (HIFU)

HIFU (high-intensity focused ultrasound) is a non-invasive facial lifting technology that uses focused ultrasound energy to penetrate into the SMAS fascia layer to stimulate collagen regeneration and tissue contraction, thereby achieving a lifting and firming effect.

Features:

It can accurately act on 3 layers of depth (epidermis, dermis, SMAS layer).

No recovery period is required, it can be used as a "lunch break beauty" option.

The effect is natural and gradual, and the effect is most obvious in 2-3 months.

Common equipment brands:

Ultraformer

Ulthera

Doublo Gold, etc.

Note:

Not suitable for people with extremely loose skin or too thick subcutaneous fat.

Slight soreness and burning sensation may occur in the early stage, which usually eases in 1-2 days.

Mesotherapy: Deep nourishment and slight brightening

Mesotherapy treatment is to inject nutrients such as hyaluronic acid, antioxidants, vitamins, peptides, etc. into the dermis to achieve the effects of moisturizing, tightening, and improving fine lines. Although its lifting effect is limited, as a basic aesthetics treatment for cheek care, it can enhance skin firmness and delay sagging.

Recommended frequency:

Once a month in the early stage, 3-5 times in a row

Subsequently, it can be maintained once every 2-3 months

Combination therapy: More stable lifting effect

Single therapy has limited effect in some cases, and combined treatment is a more scientific method. For example:

Thread lift plus hyaluronic acid dermal fillers: one treatment lift the face and one fill the depressed facial areas, helping the face be perfect.

HIFU plus mesotherapy treatment: It can achieve deep lifting and epidermal nutrition.

Botulinum toxin plus thread lift: It can relax sagging muscles and lift the face.

Filler injection plus mesotherapy: It takes into account both morphology and skin condition.

Doctors usually formulate a combination plan based on the individual's age, skin condition, and expected effect to achieve the most ideal cheek lift.

Age 25-50 years old, with mild to moderate facial relaxation.

Deepening of nasolabial folds, collapse of apple muscles, blurred contours.
