Cheek Enhancement - City Clinic Marbella

Cheek Enhancement

Cheek enhancement is a non-surgical treatment that restores facial volume, defines cheekbones, and improves facial balance using advanced dermal fillers and collagen-stimulating techniques. At City Clinic Marbella, we refine the midface area to achieve a natural lifted effect and rejuvenated appearance.

Doctors & Specialists:

Dr.Javier Pérez Diez

As we age, midface volume is reduced due to fat redistribution and collagen loss — flattening of the cheeks can accentuate lower-face sagging and deepen nasolabial folds. With strategic filler placement and volumizing techniques, we rebuild cheek structure, enhance youthful contours, and improve facial symmetry.

The result is a subtle lift, more defined cheekbones, and a fresher, more sculpted appearance without surgery or downtime.
