This blog post is all about a treatment I had called a 3 point cheek lift, which is done with dermal filler. This is the same sort of product you would have in a lip augmentation, it breaks down in the same way so again this isn't harmful to your body. I was advised that this treatment would last 1-2 years and I paid £550. I will start with the before and after pictures firstly!
Girls, I would just like to say my liquid eyeliner skills have improved greatly since this was done, cringing at those wings! The pictures on the left hand side in both pictures is the before picture... I must admit the lighting is a little more forgiving in the after pictures but I think you can see a pretty substantial difference!
The way the cheek lift works, is by adding filler to certain areas which loose fat. The areas injected are the nasolabial folds and a few different points in the cheeks. This, as with any aesthetic procedure isn't painful as such but the nasolabial folds were very uncomfortable when injected... enough to make me grit my teeth hard and just focus on the outcome! The result was instant, I didn't really see any further result but you are advised that filler can improve over the following 2 weeks from the treatment.
It would be unfair of me to compare a before picture to how I now look, because since this was done in December 2015 I have had a LOT more filler in my face! Honestly if i didn't have the before and after pictures to compare, just looking at myself in the mirror I couldn't see a difference. When I arrived home none of my family could see a difference either which means that it must've been very subtle! I'm not sure for the price it was worth it if I'm honest, but I do know this procedure is really for patients maybe a bit older than myself! Since this treatment I have had cheek fillers, which seem to also work well at lessening the depth of the nasolabial folds. I would say this is good for a subtle change, but it wasn't quite what I expected - although I have learnt that filler seems to not be such a drastic treatment, but more a build-able project! #ProjectFace
Happy lifting <3
