The cheek bone area is a key treatment area for many individuals seeking a lift in one of several aspects of the face. The zygomatic or malar area of the cheeks is the area of the high cheek bone below the rims of the eyes that extends out to the sides of the face.
Over time, skeletal changes, fat loss and collagen depletetion will flatten the malar area of the cheeks. This can in turn accentuate sagging in many areas of the face like the hollows under eyes, the jowls and a downward turn of the lips.
Dr. Lina Kotecha at Glen Dental uses a series of dermal filler injections to make your cheeks look a little fuller and reduce unsightly jowls and wrinkles. Alternatively, younger patients may simply desire more prominent/defined cheekbones.
The flattering new facial contours will give you a refreshed, rejuvenated and a more defined appearance.

This procedure is used to lift and rejuvenate your cheeks, all without the need for painful surgical operations. Dr. Lina Kotecha use dermal fillers (made from Hyaluronic Acid) to improve the appearance of your cheeks and reduce saggy, aged-looking skin.
As you get older, you may begin to notice some sagginess in the skin on your face. This is a common sign of ageing, but Dr. Lina Kotecha can use dermal fillers to make your cheeks look a little fuller and reduce unsightly jowls and wrinkles. Alternatively, younger patients may simply desire more prominent/defined cheekbones.
Dr Lina Kotecha begins by applying a cream containing a topical anaesthetic across the face. Once the topical anaesthetic has taken effect, a series of several small injections containing dermal filler will be administered. The dermal filler will fill out your cheeks and replenish their youthful appearance.
If your cheeks have become jowly or started to sag, the facial fillers will help to reverse this classic sign of ageing, giving your cheeks added lift and a vibrant fullness. This effect will last for 12-18 months.
You may notice a mild swelling/soreness straight after the procedure. This is a perfectly normal reaction to the injection and it will subside in due course usually within 48 hours.
Cheek enhancement is not suitable for pregnant/breastfeeding women or anyone who suffers from severe allergies.
Full list of side effects, cautions and contraindications will be discussed at your face to face consultation.
Please note: Any injectable procedure will only be undertaken after your face to face consultation with Dr. Lina Kotecha, during which a full assessment will be carried out and full list of cautions and contraindications discussed.
Depending on exactly the type of dermal filler used and the location of the dermal filler placement cheek fillers often last between 6 months and 1 year with some treatments lasting up to 2 years.
"I’ve recently had my teeth whitening done by Lina, the results are amazing and I can’t stop smiling. Lina and the rest of the staff are so lovely and welcoming, they gave me lots of information about the procedure before I had it done and answered any questions I had. Would definitely recommend this dental clinic."
PW, Leicester"I have recently become a member of Glen Dental, after having a chip in my front tooth. All experiences so far have been very good. With speedy turn arounds. I would highly recommend to anyone looking to switch practices or who are not currently at a practice. Ricky is very professional along with all of the staff being very friendly, which helps make that daunting dentist visit a lot more pleasant."
JS, Market Harborough“Lina has helped to restore my faith in dentists, her calm and gentle approach has helped me to achieve the smile that I have longed for.”
IP, Leicester“I am a nervous patient and I have always found Glen Dental and all the staff there to be very sensitive to my fears. They are very reassuring and kind and I wouldn't hesitate in recommending them to anyone.”
FW, Kibworth"I'm a new patient to the practice and chose Glen Dental following various consultations at other practices. Ricky Patel was my dentist.
This was my first treatment at Glen Dental and the experience was all round very comfortable and felt minimally invasive. Ricky took his time with the treatment and was very meticulous with the great results coming through, which I'm very happy with. The composite bonding really did transform my teeth- a look and feel and I'm very happy with the outcome- brilliant!
The clinic was very comfortable with friendly staff with a clean environment. From my prior experiences at dentists, I have found it to be uncomfortable and wanting to leave as soon as possible but this was not the case with Ricky at Glen Dental. Great practice!"
"Like a lot of people I'm not overjoyed at going to the dentist and I'd had a particularly difficult experience at my previous surgery so I was very anxious.
From the very first phone call with the genuine and understanding receptionist to the initial review with the dentist and the eventual filling I needed, everything was calm and reassuring.
The waiting room doesn't smell or sound like a traditional dentist which was a huge relief. The dentist patiently listened to my concerns and made every effort to make it easier for me.
I was prepared for some pain but the system they use delivered the anaesthetic effectively and I honestly felt nothing other than a single sharp scratch and the mild vibration of the drill. It was a revelation!
I would highly recommend to anyone who is feeling anxious about treatment. Their fees are clearly stated and they consult with you about each item of the treatment plan they suggest so no nasty surprises when you come to pay. A positive experience from start to finish."
"Wonderful friendly staff, helped me get back on top of my dental hygiene. Very informative through each appointment.I would highly recommend have done a wonderful job. Thanks again for the great service Glen Dental"
TC, Great Glen"After not being to a dentist since 2017 and having some gum issues I decided to get booked for a consultation here. I was so nervous but from the first phonecall I felt at ease with them. Jo is a diamond and so welcoming as soon as you walk through the door. She has a personal touch that really makes you feel comfortable in these situations.
Ricky is my dentist and him and his lovely assistant really made me feel so much calmer and I couldn’t be more pleased with the outcome of my deep cleaning. I’m now on a dental plan with them and can already notice a huge difference in my gums firming back up!
I highly recommended this dentist and their plan, and I’ve already recommended to my family who are looking to move over this way. Thank you so much, I’m really pleased I came here and I no longer feel scared about going to the dentist which I never thought I’d say!"
