Our Costa Mesa Cheek Fillers at a Glance
Cheek filler is a non-surgical, minimally invasive injectable treatment, most commonly made from hyaluronic acid (HA), that enhances facial contours, smooths wrinkles, and restores lost volume. Some formulations, such as Radiesse and Sculptra, use alternative biocompatible materials. While results can appear immediately, optimal outcomes develop over two weeks as swelling resolves and the filler integrates with facial tissues. These treatments are FDA-approved and require minimal downtime.
Cheek filler provides a subtle yet noticeable enhancement of the cheeks and surrounding facial features. With our cheek fillers Costa Mesa patients most suitable for the treatment would be looking to:
Healthy adults looking to improve the appearance of their cheeks with realistic expectations are typically great candidates for cheek and dermal filler.
You should not receive cheek filler if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have chronic medical conditions that may cause adverse effects. Schedule your consultation with us today to confirm if you are a good candidate for cheek fillers.
Cheek filler can address issues such as:
During your cheek filler consultation, you can expect to review your expectations for the treatment with one of our professional aesthetic providers. They will also make notes of how many syringes you may need to achieve your desired results.
In preparation for your cheek filler, you should avoid blood-thinning medications, alcohol, and smoking for at least two weeks.
Your cheek filler treatment will begin with one of our highly skilled injectors making small marks on the skin with a washable marker to indicate where the filler will be injected. Then, you will be given a topical anesthetic to numb the treatment area before your cheek or dermal filler is injected just below the skin.
When finished, your skin will be cleaned of any residual preparation marks, and you will be ready to go. Any topical anesthetic will wear off within a few hours of your treatment.
For the first two days after your cheek filler, you may experience some swelling around the treatment sites. Sleeping on your back with your head elevated is recommended for the first two days. Your swelling should subside in about three to five days, and your filler will begin to settle. After two weeks, your dermal filler should be almost entirely settled, and the results of your treatment should be apparent.
Things to avoid for twenty-four hours after your treatment:
Cheek filler results should be noticeable in about two weeks after treatment. As the filler settles over time, the appearance of your cheeks will continue to improve subtly. Your results can last anywhere from six to eighteen months. After this time, you may choose to receive more filler to maintain the desired results.

You may feel a slight pinch when your highly skilled injector administers the topical anesthetic to numb the treatment area. Besides the initial sting of the injection, there should be very little discomfort associated with cheek fillers.
Cheek fillers are FDA-approved, safe treatments for restoring shape and sculpting in the cheeks when administered by a professional.
Cheek filler longevity depends on the type of filler used and individual factors. Hyaluronic acid fillers like Restylane Lyft last 6–12 months, while Juvéderm Voluma XC can last up to 24 months. Biostimulatory fillers like Radiesse or Sculptra may provide results lasting 12–24 months. Touch-ups can help maintain the desired look.
Cheek fillers can be paired with other cosmetic treatments, such as micro needling, chemical peels, and laser resurfacing, to create a well-rounded aesthetic treatment plan that addresses multiple skin concerns.
The cost of cheek filler depends on the type of filler used and the number of syringes required. On average, one syringe costs $600–$1,500, with HA fillers like Restylane Lyft and Juvéderm Voluma at the higher end. Some fillers, like Sculptra, require multiple sessions for optimal results.
