What Are Cheek Implants?
Having full, shapely cheeks and a contoured face can greatly impact a person's overall appearance. Ideal candidates for cheek implants are those who have lost fullness in the face with age or have always desired a stronger cheekbone definition. Dr. Mark A. Petroff has many years of experience performing successful cheek augmentation surgeries for his patients, correcting the look of sunken or hollow cheeks. His background and fascination with design and architecture allows him to provide his patients with a natural-looking result and better overall proportions. Cheek implants are typically made out of synthetic materials such as silicone, and each patient can thoroughly discuss their desired size and shape with Dr. Petroff at Petroff Plastic Surgery and Medi-Spa in Lake Oswego, OR prior to their procedure.
Am I A Candidate for Cheek Surgery?
An ideal candidate for cheek implant surgery is someone who wishes to enhance the contour and fullness of their cheeks for a more balanced and youthful facial appearance. We invite you to schedule a consultation at Petroff Center if you:
- Have naturally flat or hollow cheeks
- Have flat cheeks as a result of aging
- Have hollow cheeks as a result of significant weight loss
- Desire a fuller, more balanced look
- Desire a longer-term solution as compared to cheek fillers
If surgery isn't for you, then you may still benefit from cheek filler injections. During your appointment, we'll discuss your aesthetic goals and talk about which option is right for you.
How Is Cheek Implant Surgery Performed?
Since this is an outpatient surgery, patients will be under general anesthesia at an accredited surgical facility for about one hour. Dr. Petroff will begin by making an incision in the mouth between the cheek and upper gums. A pocket will be created over the cheekbone after the soft cheek tissue has been properly elevated. Then, the medical-grade cheek implant will be placed in the created pocket for one or both cheeks. Afterwards, the incisions will be closed and bandaged.
What Are the Benefits of Cheek Implants?
Cheek implants offer a long-lasting solution for those looking to enhance their facial appearance by adding volume and definition to the cheekbones. Many of our patients at Petroff Center enjoy increased self-confidence from the improved facial harmony and youthful look that cheek implants provide. Some of the benefits of cheek implants include:
- Address the appearance of hollow cheeks
- Restored volume
- Enhanced facial balance
- Customizable treatment options
- Boosted confidence
Petroff Center Plastic Surgery and Medi-Spa Reviews
Dr Petroff is an extremely professional and highly skilled plastic surgeon. I took two years to do research before choosing him to perform a face and neck lift, along with brow lift and upper/lower blepharoplasty. His work is stellar, and I am very pleased with the outcome.His entire staff is top notch. They were warm, patient, and compassionate toward me as I went through my healing process. It's been almost two years, and I am continually impressed by the natural results. I look even better than I did ten years ago!Thank you Dr Petroff and all the staff at Petroff Center.
It has been such a wonderful experience working with Dr. Petroff and his staff. I had surgery in August 2024 and I could not have asked for a better team to take care of me, from the office staff, to the anesthesiologist and nurses, to Dr. Petroff's extreme skill in surgery and creating a natural outcome, not to mention the roses they sent home with me after surgery ( what a nice, thoughtful touch ) I could not be more happy with my results, and I would highly recommend the Petroff Center, if you are thinking of any facial surgery. They are the best, and I did my research :)
Dr. Mark Petroff has given me excellent results after 16 years of surgery. He produces a natural look that lasts and I've been delighted with his skill and terrific staff.
I received HALO on my face and neck about a week ago with Kelsey. She and the entire staff were warm and professional. I’m looking forward to the final results and enjoying a refreshed look.
I have been a client / patient here for a few years. First for non-invasive procedures, then for a lower face lift, neck lift & lip lift.. I researched several surgeons, several times until I finally decided on Dr Petroff. He helped me assess what I wanted & guided me on what to expect. On the day of my surgery, Dr Petroff & his surgical staff ensured I was comfortable & helped calm my pre-op anxiety. I'm 6 months postop & very happy with the results.

What About Cheek Filler?
If patients desire subtle results or are not ready to undergo cheek surgery, then injectable cheek fillers might be a better option. Trusted, FDA-approved injectables such as Juvéderm® can add volume to the mid-face area for several months up to two years, allowing our team to customize the results based on the patient's desires. Follow-up injections will be needed to maintain the look. Schedule a consultation at Petroff Center to learn more about what you can achieve with cheek filler injections.
Our Featured Work
What to Expect After Cheek Implant Surgery
After their cheek implant procedure, patients should expect some level of swelling, numbness, and bruising in the treatment area. Normal activities, such as office work, can usually be resumed within a week. Strenuous exercise should be avoided for the first few weeks after surgery. As the swelling resolves, the patient can expect to see the full benefits of the surgery over the following few months. Cheek implants have a strong safety record since they are made with the highest-quality materials. While cheek implants provide long-term benefits, a patient’s face will change due to the aging process, which could impact the look of the implants over time.
