Sagging Cheekbones

Cheekbones are very important for your appearance. Many people dream of beautiful cheekbones. Aren’t you blessed with this? Or have your cheekbones collapsed due to old age? Then you can choose to have your cheekbones filled. By accentuating your cheekbones, you get a more youthful look. This creates the so-called V-shape in the face, which makes you look younger and less tired. The treatment is quite simple. You do not need surgery. At Betan Clinics, sagging cheekbones are treated with fillers. These can fill in the cheekbones and thus ensure a fresher appearance.

At Betan Clinics, you can schedule a consultation free of charge and without obligation. The plastic surgeon will tell you more about the treatment of sagging cheekbones. In advance, you can fill in a digital questionnaire with medical questions at home. It is important that you have already done this before the consultation so that the plastic surgeon can discuss the results immediately. This will be done first. If the questionnaire does not show that there are risks for you for the treatment, then the procedure can be further explained. The plastic surgeon will not only tell you how the treatment of sagging cheekbones will proceed, but he will also give you more information about the aftercare, the result, possible risks and costs. Do you still want to fill your cheekbones afterwards? Then the treatment can take place immediately or be scheduled at a later time. You will receive a treatment agreement that you first have to sign. Photos will also be taken, which will be compared with photos taken after the treatment. These photos will be stored confidentially in your medical file.

Before the plastic surgeon starts, the sagging cheekbones will first be anaesthetized. Usually, an anaesthetic cream is used. The plastic surgeon draws some markings to determine the exact injection site. The filler can then be injected with a very thin needle or with a cannula. Betan Clinics uses fillers based on hyaluronic acid for this purpose. This substance also occurs naturally in the body and ensures that the skin remains supple. The older you get, the less hyaluronic acid is produced. As a result, your skin also becomes less elastic, and this can be seen, for example, in your sagging cheekbones. This shortage of hyaluronic acid can easily be supplemented by means of a filler. After the skin has been anaesthetised, the filler is injected into the sagging cheekbones with a thin needle or cannula. The plastic surgeon will inject in several places and massage the skin so that the filler is evenly distributed. The treatment will take 20 to 30 minutes on average.

When your sagging cheekbones have been treated, the skin will still be a little red and swollen. These symptoms will disappear spontaneously within a few hours. It is also possible that you suffer from some bruising. These will disappear within a few days. Furthermore, try to touch the treated area as little as possible in the first 48 hours after the treatment and do not massage it, for example. After 2 weeks, you will see the optimal result. In principle, you will experience little pain after the treatment, but there are some activities that you better postpone. For example, it is wise not to get too much sun during the first 2 weeks and otherwise use a good sunscreen with a high SPF. In addition, it is not recommended to go under the sunbed and visit the sauna for 2 weeks. Also, wait 2 weeks with beauty treatments. In addition, you can not exercise until 24 hours after the treatment. Get enough rest on the first day.

If your sagging cheekbones have been treated, you’ll have to wait until the result is clearly visible. This takes, on average, 2 weeks. After that, your cheekbones will look firmer and fuller. This gives you a younger look. If you are still not satisfied after 2 weeks, you can return for an extra treatment. How long the effect lasts depends on the type of filler you have chosen. Treatment with hyaluronic acid fillers has an average effect of 12 to 18 months. The substance is broken down in the body in the course of that time. After that, you can have your sagging cheekbones treated with fillers again.

The use of fillers to treat your sagging cheekbones is relatively safe. Betan Clinics uses non-permanent fillers, which break down automatically in your body. In addition, they are 100% natural. So this is absolutely not harmful to your body, which is, for example, the case with permanent fillers. That is why they are forbidden in the Netherlands nowadays. The fillers that Betan Clinics uses to treat sagging cheekbones have already been used millions of times by numerous plastic surgeons all over the world. You can, therefore, be sure that the use of these products is safe and that there are hardly any complications when filling your cheekbones.
