Beautiful Balance
The human eye is naturally attracted to symmetry. If you have lost facial volume due to aging or have asymmetries in the face (even ones that are nearly impossible to see), it can subconsciously affect how you see yourself. Cheek augmentation in Houston at Athré Facial Plastics addresses these asymmetries and volume loss to improve facial definition and restore your best look. Enhance your natural beauty, add volume, and rejuvenate your face with this quick procedure.

Cheek Augmentation at a Glance:
Finding Facial Harmony
The cheeks are the bony prominences that bring the entire face into proportion. A recessed cheek area can make the middle one-third of the face seem small and unbalanced. Bring volume back into this area with cheek augmentation, a quick and effective facial surgery procedure.
- Enhanced Definition: Achieve sculpted cheekbones for a more defined and balanced facial structure.
- Restored Youthfulness: Combat signs of aging by restoring lost facial volume, creating a plumper and more youthful appearance.
- Improved Symmetry: Address asymmetry in the cheeks for a more harmonious and aesthetically pleasing facial profile.
- Boosted Confidence: Achieve your desired look and potentially experience a confidence boost from feeling good about your appearance.
- Variety of Options: Choose from fillers (temporary, subtle), fat grafting (longer-lasting, natural), or implants (permanent, dramatic) to best suit your goals and preferences.

About Cheek Augmentation
What is Cheek Augmentation?
During your consultation, Dr. Athré will discuss your goals and recommend the best approach for you. Our Houston cheek augmentation procedure can be performed using injectable fillers, fat grafting, or implants.
- Fillers: This minimally invasive option involves injecting hyaluronic acid or other fillers into the cheeks for subtle enhancement and immediate results.
- Fat Grafting: Fat cells are extracted from another area of your body, processed, and then re-injected into the cheeks for longer-lasting, natural-looking volume.
- Implants: Solid silicone implants are surgically placed to create sculpted cheekbones with permanent results.

What conditions does a cheek augmentation address?
Cheek augmentation addresses the loss of facial volume that occurs naturally with age. This can lead to:
- Hollow cheeks
- Flat or sunken appearance
- Less defined jawline
- Overall loss of facial definition
By adding volume to the cheeks, cheek augmentation restores a youthful fullness and creates a more balanced and harmonious facial profile.

Cheek Augmentation Recovery
Surgery itself takes 1 ½ hours.
Patients can expect to see minimal bruising and swelling that should dissipate after about a week, when they can return to work and daily activities. Athré Facial Plastics offers guidance and care throughout the recovery process. Our care coordinators are available to answer your questions, and our follow-up appointments give Dr. Athré a chance to review your healing and give you the best chance at a speedy and complete recovery.
Cheek augmentation results can vary depending on the method chosen, but all aim to achieve a fuller, more youthful appearance. Fillers provide subtle definition and volume that can last up to a year, while fat grafting offers longer-lasting, natural-looking results that may even improve skin quality. Implants deliver the most dramatic and permanent change, sculpting prominent cheekbones.
Remember: swelling is common after any cheek augmentation procedure, so final results can take several weeks to become fully refined.

Patient Review
“I had an ultrasonic rhinoplasty and chin implant done a little over 9 months ago. The process, the office and Dr. Athre were all awesome. I am thrilled with my results. I have a masculine nose, and my whole face seems proportional. I was skeptical about the chin. I am such a believer. My advice to anyone is to just listen to Dr. Athre’s rec’s. He is very knowledgeable and very frank.”
