Fillers are used to add volume to the face and reduce wrinkles. They are divided into four categories: cheek fillers, under-eye light fillers, lip fillers, and chin fillers.
Cheek Filler
In general beauty standards, full cheeks are considered symbols of youth and attractiveness. Hollow or sunken cheeks can make a person’s face appear older and tired than it actually is. If there is volume deficiency or loss in the cheek area due to factors such as genetics, weight loss, or aging, and if a person desires fuller cheeks, cheek augmentation with fillers is a suitable option. Cheek filler provides a practical and quick solution to aesthetic concerns on the face.
Using filler injection techniques, cheek augmentation can effectively treat volume deficiencies in the cheeks with a procedure that lasts approximately 15 minutes.
How is cheek filler done?
With the injection of cheek filler material, the surface of the cheek is balanced backward while gently lifting and rounding the cheek area. Surrounding tissue is tightened to control the widening of the face angle. Successfully applied cheek augmentation can enhance the aesthetic appearance of the face. Well-defined cheekbones play a significant role in facial beauty. Defined cheeks help balance the face, improve its profile appearance, and contribute to a more youthful look.
Under-eye Light Filler
Under-eye light filler injection is a treatment technique that increases hydration levels in the depth of skin tissues, enhances skin tone, and improves its elasticity, firmness, and smoothness, thereby enhancing light reflection.
Under-eye issues can make a person look more tired and older than they actually are, even at a young age. Under-eye light filler can address the difference in contour between the under-eye area and the cheeks. Hollows under the eyes can be aligned with the cheeks. In this way, a necessary lift can be achieved around the under-eye area.
How does light filler work?
With light filling, the hollows under the eyes are raised and they reflect the light better. Apart from this, it provides moisturizing, tissue renewal and elasticity to the skin thanks to its special content. This special mixture is injected evenly under the eye using a thin injection that will not cause any pain or ache during application. Immediately after the injection, the skin rises and the purple appearance disappears.
Things to consider after light filler
After the procedure, there may be slight redness at the injection points. This redness typically subsides on its own within approximately 3-4 hours. During this period, avoid rubbing the injected areas. Do not apply any creams or cosmetic products to your face. Usually, after 4 hours, your skin returns to normal.
Lip Filler
Lip aesthetics is one of the most vibrant topics in plastic surgery. This is because the lips symbolize facial beauty, attracting attention while speaking or posing. Full lips have been a symbol of attractiveness for centuries. There are constant advancements in this field within aesthetic surgery.

As can be seen, lip aesthetics is a broad subject. The type of treatment is chosen based on the patient’s expectations and the preferences of the doctor. The best option is to decide on the method together through discussion. Since it is often a simple procedure, it can be considered one of the most commonly performed surgeries by aesthetic surgeons.
Chin Filler
A strong jawline is a significant feature of an attractive face. A chin shape that harmonizes with the face, a defined jawline, and symmetrical appearance can contribute to a more balanced overall facial appearance. Common deformities in the chin area include volume deficiencies, chin size, undefined jawline, asymmetry, and sagging under the chin.
A patient may complain of an ill-defined neck shape, a weak or prominent chin, or sagging and wrinkling skin under the chin known as a ‘double chin’. Less severe complaints include an unclear jawline or dimpling at the chin tip, which are among the most common aesthetic concerns. A strong chin shape and jawline signify youthfulness, vitality, and attractiveness. A well-defined jawline is visible not just through layers of skin or fat but also due to underlying bone structure. Chin augmentation does not require anesthesia, though local anesthesia can be administered if requested by the patient.During the procedure, filler material is injected under the skin using small needles. A chin filler session typically lasts about 15 minutes. With a proper treatment plan , a pronounced jawline can be achieved ,enhancing your structural features and significantly improving the contours of your face and chin.
