Age changes the skin and tissue on the face. In the cheek area, lost elasticity in the skin, cheek fat loss and sagging from gravity, diminish the firmness and contours. Cheeks may look flatter, and eye bags can form. Lines on the midface may appear. A non-surgical cheek lift is a non-invasive option to restore the contours to your midface in one office visit to City Facial Plastics in NYC.
A non-surgical cheek lift is a cosmetic procedure that aims to improve the appearance of the cheeks without the need for surgery. It involves the use of minimally invasive techniques like facial injectables and ultrasound heat energy to reduce sagging skin and restore volume in your cheeks for a more youthful appearance.
There are several different types of non-surgical cheek lift procedures, including:
