Botox injection is a popular rejuvenating procedure that involves the injection of botulinum toxin to temporarily paralyze and relax muscles, commonly done on the face to treat facial lines and wrinkles, gummy smiles, etc. Compared to other injectables, Botox can be used to remove a wider variety of wrinkles and aging signs in different areas of the face, treating both large and fine lines. Botox effects usually last about 3 to 4 months. So, to maintain the desired result, treatment should be repeated every 4 months on average. However, as your muscles can be trained to contract less, the effects may last longer over time.

Laser resurfacing is a procedure using ablative or non-ablative lasers to improve the appearance and texture of the skin, used to treat age spots, acne scars, fine lines and wrinkles, crow’s feet, sagging skin, uneven skin tone, warts, etc. Ablative lasers resurface the skin by removing the top layer, while non-ablative lasers cause vascular lesions to shrink away and stimulate collagen production. The number of required sessions depends on the severity of the concern. You may achieve the desired result in a single session without having to repeat the procedure for years. Yet, more severe issues may need several monthly or yearly sessions.

Cheek implants are usually made of silicone and are placed in the cheek area to make them look fuller and more shapely and enhance the contours of the middle face. The procedure of inserting implants leaves minimal scars since incisions are made inside the mouth or lower eyelid. Cheek implants are permanent but the procedure is reversible since silicone implants do not integrate with the cheek tissues and could be simply removed.

Fat transfer is a minimally-invasive procedure in which fat is taken from one part of the body (such as the belly) using liposuction and then transferred (injected) into another part (such as breasts or buttocks) to add volume and fullness. The procedure includes tiny cuts which are quite unlikely to leave noticeable scars. Fat transfer results are permanent, the donor area won’t grow new fat cells and the recipient area will keep the transferred fat in place, however, part of the fat will be absorbed within the first few weeks and the final outcome is not as prominent as the immediate result.

Dermal filler injection is a non-surgical procedure involving the injection of gel-like substances under the skin to smooth out wrinkles and creases, enhance the volume, and improve the contours of the recipient area. Dermal fillers can also help with removing acne scars and restoring facial fat in people with HIV. Except for polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), other FDA-approved types of fillers (Like Hyaluronic acid, Calcium hydroxylapatite, and Poly-L-lactic acid) are all absorbable by the body which renders their effects temporary, usually lasting from 6 to 18 months. Treatment with PMMA may last up to 5 years.

Buccal fat removal is a minor surgical procedure done inside the mouth to remove the cheek (buccal) fat pad in order to slim down the lower cheeks and make the face thinner and highlight the bone structure for those who are unhappy about their plump face. The results of a buccal fat removal are permanent and the fat removed will not grow back, however, excessive weight gain may cause the results to appear less effective.

A cheek lift is a procedure that lifts cheeks or the midface area and is used to treat sunken cheeks, sagging midface, and signs of aging on the face. A cheek lift may be combined with a cheek augmentation procedure to bring about bolder results. Besides people with sunken cheeks and a tired aged look, a cheek lift could be a helpful option for those with prominent smile lines. The results may last for 10 years and even more.

Cheekbone reduction is a procedure that reduces prominent cheekbones to narrow the facial width either by removing the excess fat or by shaving the cheekbones. It may be performed through three different methods to address the needs of people with different types of cheek projection, including the L-shaped osteotomy mainly performed to reduce frontal malar protrusion, the malar rotation technique addressing concerns of people with a lateral malar protrusion, and the scalp approach for those with both lateral and frontal protrusion of the malar. The results are permanent and are noticeable usually 2 to 3 weeks after the surgery.

Dimple creation surgery is a minor cosmetic procedure to create dimples on the cheeks for those who wish to have dimples but don’t have natural ones. Natural dimples are small indentations on the cheeks usually appearing when smiling which occur due to an opening in a cheek muscle and are considered cute and attractive by many people. Dimple surgery includes a small removal of fat and muscle on the cheek to create a hole in an area of about 3 millimeters. The surgery result is permanent. 

A Facelift is a surgical procedure that improves aging signs in the face by lifting and tightening sagging skin and sometimes repositioning facial muscles, especially in cheeks and jaw areas. Depending on your condition, a surgeon uses a mini facelift or a standard/conventional technique to address your needs. A mini facelift involves shorter incisions usually around the ears and hidden in the hairline or natural creases to help tighten the skin and remove mild sagging which could be effective for 2-6 years. However, a standard facelift is more extensive aiming to address advanced aging and the results last up to 15 years.

A thread lift is a non-surgical procedure in which absorbable sutures are used to lift and tighten the skin to improve signs of aging. It is commonly done as an alternative to a surgical facelift, brow lift, or other lifting procedures. However, compared to a surgical lift, a thread lift is less invasive and brings about immediate results but of course, they usually last for a shorter time, about 1 to 3 years, depending on the skin type and the patient’s lifestyle.

A non-surgical cheek augmentation procedure involving the injection of gel-like substances into the cheeks to enhance their volume and improve their contour.
