A Cheek Lift is an operation to lift the cheeks and improve their shape. The surgery lifts the cheek’s soft tissues, reduces facial flatness, and restores a youthful contour.

A Cheek Lift treats flattened or drooping cheeks and reduces under-eye hollows or puffiness. The surgery also addresses deep lines between the nose and mouth to give a younger, more refreshed appearance.

At Bella Vou, a Cheek Lift is often performed as part of lower eyelid surgery or blepharoplasty.

Cheek sagging and loss of fullness is one of the earliest signs of ageing. Drooping of the fat pads in the cheeks causes a loss of the youthful cheek contour but also affects the rest of the face. The middle part of the face often becomes flatter and longer. There may be puffiness or increased hollowness under the eyes, jowls, and deep lines extending from the corner of the nose to the corner of the mouth.

If the effects of ageing are making you look tired or grumpy, even when well-rested. Or if your appearance is affecting your confidence and self-esteem, the specialist surgeons at Bella Vou can help. A Cheek Lift can restore your cheeks’ natural youthful curves and rejuvenate your appearance.

At Bella Vou, Cheek Lift surgery is usually performed under local anaesthetic. It is done as a day case procedure, meaning you won’t need to stay in hospital overnight.

The surgeon makes an incision under the lower eyelash margin. The fat pads are then pulled up into their original position. The muscle layers can also be hitched up, and then the tissues are carefully secured in their new positions. Any excess skin in the undereye area can also be removed to reduce bags and puffiness.

The skin in the undereye and midface area is thin and delicate so that any surgery will result in bruising. The recovery will depend on the extent of surgery and your healing pattern.

Most people find that bruising and swelling fades by a week to ten days. Concealer can be worn soon after the operation. Your surgeon and the specialist team at Bella Vou will offer support and guidance about how to safely camouflage the area.
