How to have high cheekbones?

To obtain high, defined cheekbones, there are several solutions, each with its own advantages depending on personal needs.

They range from the more invasive such as malaroplasty, a real cosmetic surgery, to the softer ones such as corrective make-up or facial yoga.

Between these two extremes are techniques that are absolutely less invasive and risky than surgery and that can guarantee a natural, immediate and lasting cheekbone augmentation.

We are talking about hyaluronic acid cheekbone fillers, ideal for those seeking a non-permanent solution that can be modulated over time. It is no coincidence that dermal fillers represent one of the most popular treatments in aesthetic medicine today for those who want pronounced cheekbones.

Creating more pronounced cheekbones with make-up

By simply using make-up, it is possible to achieve high cheekbones with contouring.

This technique involves using powder or cream products, usually in two shades: a darker one to sculpt and a lighter one to brighten.

The dark shade should be applied just below the zygomatic bone and blended upwards to create the lifting effect. The light shade, on the other hand, should be applied above the cheekbone and over the eyebrow arch to emphasise the area and capture the light.

Remarkable results can be achieved with contouring. However, it is merely an optical illusion of higher and more defined cheekbones, which will disappear once the make-up is removed.

Moreover, achieving this kind of make-up requires time and a certain amount of skill, both in the choice and application of products and shades suited to one’s complexion.

Why augment cheekbones with fillers for a natural effect?

As we have already mentioned, hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers are an excellent choice for those who want to achieve a natural and harmonious cheekbone augmentation.

Hyaluronic acid is a natural constituent of connective tissue. This means that, when injected into the area to be treated in the form of a transparent jelly, it restores lost volume and improves the structure of the face without distorting it.

Moreover, precisely because it is a molecule naturally present in our body, the risks of contraindications and side effects are extremely low.

Another advantage of HA fillers is the modulability of the treatment according to the needs and extent of the imperfection. The treatment is performed on an outpatient basis and requires no recovery time.

Results are immediate with a duration of between 6 and 12 months, depending on the individual metabolism, the quality of the injectant used and the manual skill of the aesthetic physician.

Compared to other procedures, fillers offer a natural cheekbone augmentation, as the hyaluronic acid integrates perfectly with the skin tissues. This gives the patient a fresh, youthful appearance without appearing artificial.

How to maintain high cheekbones?

Maintaining high cheekbones requires care and consistency, especially after an aesthetic treatment such as hyaluronic acid fillers.

To prolong the effect of the filler, it is advisable to follow some good practices. A moisturising skincare routine, a diet rich in antioxidants and vitamins, not smoking and responsible exposure to the sun all contribute to prolonging the effects over time.

Being a biocompatible and resorbable filler, HA also requires periodic maintenance touch-ups.

For the duration of the results, as well as for the safety of the treatment, it is the quality of the product used that makes the difference, as well as the expertise of the aesthetic physician.

The Foliage by Phitogen injectables are based on pure cross-linked hyaluronic acid of non-animal origin, which preserves the characteristics of hyaluronic acid naturally present in the body. The result is a product that offers a natural cheekbone augmentation that is absolutely safe and without the risk of side effects.

A guarantee, therefore, not only for patients, but also for the doctors who use them on a daily basis. Similarly, whoever decides to become a Foliage by Phitogen distributor will be able to count on effective and safe products, guaranteeing the market reliable and quality dermal fillers.
