What are the methods for filling apple cheeks? Who is suitable for filling apple cheeks?

Now that medical cosmetology is so developed, there are several ways to fill up the apple cheeks, but not everyone is suitable for filling up the apple cheeks. So what are the methods to fill up the apple cheeks, and who is suitable for filling up the apple cheeks?

1. Hyaluronic acid

The apple muscles need to be soft and elastic, so the closer the filler is to human tissue, the better the effect will be. By injecting hyaluronic acid, you can also create the effect of apple muscles. Some women have high cheekbones, which makes their facial expressions look serious. By injecting hyaluronic acid into the "apple muscles", the apple muscles will appear and the facial lines will become softer. In Hong Kong and Taiwan, most of the injections for apple muscles are based on large-molecule hyaluronic acid, and the effect can be maintained for 1 year or more because of differences in individual physiques. In the mainland, small-molecule hyaluronic acid and collagen approved by the State Food and Drug Administration are used to shape the apple muscles at the same time, and the effect is also quite good.

2. Autologous fat filling

Generally speaking, using autologous fat transplantation can make the effect last longer. The operation process only requires extracting a few cc of fat from the fat-rich areas such as the thighs or buttocks, and then injecting it into the apple muscle area. The operation only requires local anesthesia. For example, if the cheekbones are high, the facial expression looks serious. Therefore, as long as some fat is filled in and the high cheekbones are slightly dispersed, the effect of apple muscles is created, and the facial lines become much softer.

3. Silicone prosthesis

In the past, it was common to see people injecting fillers such as silicone into the apple cheeks. Although the effect lasted for a long time, the skin tends to become thinner over the years due to years of wear and tear. At this time, permanent implants sometimes become unable to blend with the face, resulting in an unnatural appearance.

4. Collagen

The English scientific name of collagen is Collagen. It is a biological macromolecular substance. Its function in animal cells is to bind tissues. Collagen is implanted subcutaneously through non-surgical injection to increase the capacity of the dermis tissue, thereby smoothing out various wrinkles, improving skin defects, and sculpting perfect facial features. Before collagen augmentation of the apple muscles, the doctor will disinfect and anesthetize the face of the patient. Usually the doctor will use the method of intraoral injection of anesthetic needles. When injecting collagen to augment the apple muscles, the doctor will use a long needle to perform multiple injections through a needle hole, and will knead and press while injecting to evenly distribute the collagen. The effect of injecting collagen to augment the apple muscles is immediate, and the patient's apple muscles will immediately become plump.

1. Age increase and physiological aging

As we age, our skin loses collagen and fat, our cheeks begin to sag, our original apple muscles gradually disappear, our tear troughs and nasolabial folds deepen, and our appearance quickly looks older.

2. Congenital factors

The congenital lack of support for the facial bones means that the zygomatic area is sunken, which manifests as wide and flat zygomatic bones, protruding maxilla like buck teeth, obvious tear troughs and nasolabial folds, etc. Such problems are mostly caused by genetics, acquired bone development, etc., and in severe cases, they need to be solved by surgery.
