Our approach
What is cheekbone definition? An overview
Cheekbones help shape the face. Over time, volume loss, tissue laxity or natural anatomy can reduce their projection and leave the face looking tired.
Rather than simply adding volume, a medical aesthetic approach looks at facial proportions. The goal is subtle support through the midface while preserving your features and expressions.
Associated symptoms
Less defined cheekbones,
A tired-looking face,
Less support through the midface.
Areas treated at Dr. Blackburn’s clinics: cheeks, tear troughs, midface and surrounding contours.
