Enhance Your Natural Beauty with Cheek Fillers in Edmonton
Cheek fillers are a quick and non-surgical way to restore volume, contour, and lift to your face, giving you a youthful, refreshed look. As we age, the natural fat pads in our cheeks diminish, causing sagging and flattening of the midface. At Albany Cosmetic and Laser Centre in Edmonton, we specialize in using premium dermal fillers to enhance your cheekbones and rejuvenate your appearance safely and effectively. Whether you’re looking to sculpt your cheekbones for a defined profile or replenish lost volume, our team of experts customizes each treatment to meet your goals. With little downtime and natural-looking results, cheek fillers are a popular choice for those seeking a subtle yet impactful enhancement.
“Cheek fillers are not just about volume; they’re about restoring facial harmony and achieving that timeless lift. The right filler, in the right hands, can turn back the clock, accentuate your natural beauty, and give you a rejuvenated confidence.”

A Video Walkthrough of the Cheek Augmentation Procedure
Watch our detailed video to see how the cheek augmentation procedure is performed and what you can expect during your visit. The process begins by understanding your concerns, then choosing the appropriate fillers and marking the area. The purpose of marking is to locate the natural prominence of the cheek and to inject safely and effectively. The natural prominence of the cheek is identified by the intersection of two lines: one line between the corner of the mouth and the corner of the eye, and another line between the corner of the nose and the ear.
Preparation and Aftercare Timeline
3 Days Before:
Avoid alcohol, aspirin, and any non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) like ibuprofen to reduce the risk of bruising. Discontinue any blood-thinning supplements such as fish oil, vitamin E, and ginkgo biloba. Ensure you have gentle skincare products at home, such as a mild cleanser and hydrating moisturizer. Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water.
On Treatment Day:
Arrive with a clean face; avoid makeup. Wear comfortable clothing. Eat a small meal to avoid feeling light-headed during the procedure. Expect a consultation to review your medical history and confirm the treatment plan.
Immediately Post Treatment:
Apply an ice pack to the treated areas to reduce swelling and discomfort. Avoid touching, pressing, or manipulating the treated areas to prevent filler displacement. Use a mild, non-irritating cleanser. We recommend the Vivier HEXAM Gentle Cleanser. Apply a gentle, hydrating moisturizer. Our recommended product is the Vivier LEXXEL Moisturizing Cream, but other options are available. Avoid sun exposure and apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30. Avoid strenuous activities and excessive facial movements.
1 Day Post Treatment:
Continue using a mild cleanser and hydrating moisturizer. Avoid direct sun exposure and apply sunscreen with at least SPF 30. Refrain from strenuous activities, excessive sweating, and exposure to high temperatures (e.g., saunas, hot tubs). Avoid sleeping on your face to prevent filler displacement.
3 Days Post Treatment:
Continue with gentle skincare routines. Redness, swelling, and bruising are normal; continue using soothing and hydrating products. Avoid alcohol, aspirin, NSAIDs, and blood-thinning supplements. You may use arnica gel or tablets to help reduce bruising.
Understanding Cheek Filler Injections
Cheek filler injections are a non-surgical cosmetic treatment designed to restore volume and enhance the contour of the cheeks. These injections use hyaluronic acid-based fillers, which are naturally occurring substances in the body that provide hydration and elasticity to the skin. The procedure involves a careful assessment of your facial structure and aesthetic goals, followed by precise injections to achieve a natural, youthful lift. Cheek fillers can address volume loss due to aging, improve facial symmetry, and highlight your cheekbones, offering immediate results with minimal downtime.
Why Do We Lose Cheek Volume?
As we age, our skin loses elasticity and fat, leading to a loss of volume in the cheeks. Factors such as genetics, sun exposure, and lifestyle choices can accelerate this process.
Cheek fillers offer numerous benefits, including:
- Restored facial volume
- Enhanced cheekbone definition
- Youthful and natural appearance
- Non-surgical and minimally invasive
- Immediate results with little to no downtime
Choosing the Right Clinic for Cheek Fillers in Edmonton

Frequently Asked Questions
What Is The Best Filler Type For My Cheeks?
At our clinic, we select the filler types tailored to your needs. Here’s a brief overview of some commonly used cheek fillers:
- Hyaluronic Acid Fillers: Brands such as Juvederm, Restylane, and Teosyal fall under this category. They’re an excellent choice for enhancing cheeks, treating marionette lines, and addressing fine lines and wrinkles. These fillers typically last for one to two years.
- Calcium Hydroxylapatite (Radiesse): This type of filler is semi-permanent and stimulates collagen growth. This means you’ll see immediate results that also last longer compared to some other filler types. However, it is more expensive.
- Collagen Fillers (e.g., Bellafill): These fillers are permanent and contain tiny microspheres that stay beneath the skin permanently. Therefore, they provide structural support and enhance the skin’s appearance.
What Are The Side Effects Of Cheek Fillers?
The procedure at Albany Cosmetic and Laser Centre is generally deemed safe and is well-tolerated by the majority of our patients. However, like any cosmetic treatment, there can be side effects. Some of the more common reactions post-injection include redness, swelling, bruising, and a bit of tenderness or slight pain at the site of the injection.
Will My Cheeks Look Natural After The Treatment?
Instead of a generic solution, we provide treatments that are tailored specifically to your needs and desired outcomes. By employing the most current techniques and using the right amount of filler, we strive for a delicate uplift that retains a natural look, steering clear of the overly “filled” appearance. Our overarching objective is not just to rejuvenate, but to do so in a manner that harmoniously blends with and elevates your existing features. With us, you can be confident in obtaining a balanced and naturally glowing result.
How Long Do Cheek Fillers Last?
On average, the results from cheek fillers last between 6 to 18 months. However, the lasting effects can vary based on a couple of factors. Different types of dermal fillers have their own durations, and how long they last can also depend on an individual’s body — specifically, how quickly it processes and breaks down the filler.
Is The Cheek Filler Injection Painful?
Generally speaking, most individuals find the procedure to involve very little discomfort. Moreover, to enhance the comfort level, we administer a topical anesthetic or numbing cream before the injection. Dr. Alhallak further employs the use of a blunt cannula for the injection, a specialized technique known to significantly curtail pain, swelling, and bruising. Your well-being and ease are paramount to us, and we strive to make every session a positive and comfortable experience for you.
What Is The Recovery Time After Injection?
Recovering from cheek fillers and cheek augmentation at Albany Cosmetic and Laser Centre is generally straightforward and quick. Most of our patients find themselves returning to their regular routines just a few hours after the treatment. While some might notice mild swelling and bruising, these effects are temporary and usually fade within a few days. For those who wish to mask any redness or minor bruising, makeup can easily be applied as a convenient solution.
