The foundation of facial support
The mid-face, which includes the area beneath the eyes down to the cheeks, acts as the central pillar of the face. Over time, factors like genetics, sun exposure, and the natural loss of bone density and fat pads lead to volume depletion in this region. This volume loss causes several cascading effects:
- Downward migration: Tissues start to shift downward, contributing to the formation of nasolabial folds (smile lines) and accentuating the appearance of jowls in the lower face. Dedicated treatments are available for reducing nasolabial folds, and for jowl contouring.
- Under-eye hollowing: The support beneath the eyes diminishes, often deepening the tear trough and creating a tired, hollow look. For targeted refinement of under-eye hollowness, explore our dedicated under-eye treatment.
- Loss of definition: The once-defined cheekbone structure becomes flattened or deflated, making the face appear aged or heavier.
By structurally volumising key areas of the mid-face, we effectively re-establish the foundation, providing a supportive contour that benefits the entire facial profile.
Strategic contouring for a comprehensive lift
Our treatment strategy targets specific anatomical points to maximise lift and refinement using minimal product. This strategic placement ensures natural movement and durable results:
- Zygomatic arch (cheekbone): Augmenting the lateral and superior projection of the cheekbone creates a defined, high contour. This is vital for framing the eyes and upper face.
- Apex of the cheek: Volumising at the apex—the highest and most anterior point—provides the central lift required to smooth the skin below and soften shadows.
- Indirect under-eye improvement: By establishing a smooth transition from the cheek up to the undereye area, we can indirectly reduce the depth of under-eye hollows (tear troughs). This supportive technique creates a seamless, natural gradient between the mid-face and the lower eyelids.
Tailoring structure for masculine vs. feminine aesthetics
Successful facial contouring requires a clear understanding of the key aesthetic differences between genders. We personalise the application of structural support based on your desired look:
Feminine contouring:
- Placement focus: Central and anterior projection (forward volume).
- Visual outcome: Creates a smoother, softer convex curve and a more heart-shaped or oval face.
Masculine contouring:
- Placement focus: Lateral and high projection, often lower on the cheekbone.
- Visual outcome: Creates a flatter, more angular transition from the cheek to the temple for a chiselled appearance.
By adhering to these principles, our clinicians ensure the results look structurally authentic and harmonious with your overall features, whether you seek definition, softness, or a supportive lift.

Non-surgical cheek contouring focuses on enhancing definition and balance in the mid-face. Treatment is tailored to highlight the natural cheekbones and support overall facial proportions without surgery.
Cheek volume loss refers to flattening or hollowing of the mid-face, which can develop with natural ageing or be present due to facial anatomy. This change often makes folds and shadows more noticeable.
People who notice reduced cheek definition, sagging, or hollowness in the mid-face may consider treatment. It may also be suitable for those wanting to refine facial structure or balance their features.
Treatment may help by adding or supporting volume in the mid-face, supporting the overlying skin, and refining facial contours. This can create a refreshed appearance and improve balance across the face.
Your consultation is an opportunity to discuss your goals and concerns. The clinician will assess your facial structure, review your medical history, and explain non-surgical options that may be appropriate.
Non-surgical cheek contouring works by strategically adjusting volume in the mid-face. This helps to highlight the natural cheekbones, improve facial balance, and support the overlying skin. The approach is tailored to each person’s anatomy and goals, with treatment designed to create a natural and harmonious result.
Yes. Cheek contouring is tailored differently for men and women to respect natural facial shape and proportions. In women, the focus is often on creating gentle curves, lift, and soft transitions. In men, the aim is usually stronger definition, straighter contours, and a more angular appearance. The specific approach is guided by your unique anatomy and aesthetic preferences.
Deciding if cheek contouring is “worth it” is a personal choice that depends on your individual concerns and desired outcomes. Many people consider non-surgical cheek contouring when they want to change their facial definition, create a more balanced look, or address a lack of volume in their cheeks.
Cheek contouring may help create the appearance of lift by increasing structure in the mid-face. While it doesn’t physically tighten the skin, improving cheek support can soften the look of heaviness in nearby areas, such as under the eyes or around the mouth.

The procedure involves precise, non-invasive treatment to the cheeks or mid-face. Anaesthetic options are available to help minimise discomfort.

While individual experiences vary, you may feel slight discomfort. Most clinics take steps are usually taken to minimise any potential discomfort.
Cheek contouring is a non-surgical approach that involves carefully placed treatments to support volume and definition in the mid-face. The exact method depends on your unique facial structure and goals, with the aim of improving balance and proportion while maintaining a natural look.
The time to results after non-surgical cheek contouring depends on the specific methods used. Some techniques give instant changes, while others emerge over a few weeks.
Results are temporary and vary depending on the treatment performed, the individual, and factors such as metabolism and lifestyle.
No, results are not permanent. Maintenance treatments are required if you want to sustain results.
No. Cheek contouring is tailored to your natural anatomy and desired outcome. For men, the focus is often on creating stronger, more angular contours, while for women it may be on adding softness or subtle lift. The approach is always individualised to adjust your features in line with your preferences.
After treatment, it’s common to notice some swelling, redness, or mild tenderness in the cheek area. These effects are usually temporary and settle within a few days to a week. Results can often be seen quite soon, with continued improvement as any swelling resolves. You’ll be provided with aftercare guidance to support a smooth recovery.
Downtime is usually minimal. Some people experience temporary swelling, redness, or bruising, which typically resolves in a few days.

Common side effects include swelling, redness, and bruising. Less common risks including infections and inflammation, and will be discussed during your consultation to support informed decision-making.
