Cheek filler puts volume on or in front of the zygomatic bone.[1] Placed laterally and deep, it can restore an ogee curve and reduce how much cheek hangs onto a nasolabial fold. Superficial or greedy placement can read as round “apples.” It does not grow a zygoma.

Useful as missing malar volume or as support above a fold. Not a substitute for a hitch when the pad has dropped (see nasolabial fold). Not an infraorbital implant.
