Wrinkles on the cheeks

At DokterEs , we offer effective and safe treatments to Reduce wrinkles in the cheeks, such as fillers, Sculptra, skin boosters, microneedling, or skin tightening with CO2 laser, depending on the type of wrinkle and underlying cause. We are happy to help you regain a fresh, youthful appearance.

How do wrinkles appear on the cheeks?
Wrinkles on the cheeks occur mostly due to natural skin aging:
- Over the years, the skin loses elastin, collagen, and fat volume. As a result, it becomes thinner and less firm, revealing lines and folds.
- Due to loss of firmness of underlying connective tissue structures, skin and underlying structures slowly sag toward the nasolabial fold and corners of the mouth resulting in skin excess and folds.
Common causes that increase the likelihood of cheek wrinkles
In addition to the natural skin aging process and genetic predisposition, there are external factors that accelerate the process:
- Repeated laughter or facial expressions
- Excessive sun exposure
- Smoking
- Sleeping habits (such as sleeping on your side)
- Loss of volume in the face
- Weight loss
This combination of influences often leads to fine lines and deep wrinkles on the cheeks.

Our treatments for smoother skin
At DokterEs , we use a variety of treatment methods to rimpels on the cheeks to fill or soften, depending on the type of wrinkle (dynamic or static), its depth and your skin type.
Treatment options include:
- Sculptra: Stimulates natural collagen production deep within the skin for long-term skin firming and volume building
- CO2 laser: Intensively improves skin structure by renewing skin layers; ideal for wrinkles and sagging skin
- Skinboosters: Hydrate the skin from within, firming and moisturizing the skin from within and giving a fresh, healthy glow
- Profhilo: Hydrates the skin with ultrapure hyaluronic acid and stimulates the production of new collagen.
- Microneedling: Stimulates collagen and evens out skin naturally
- Fillers: Fill in volume loss and soften deep creases and lines
- Botox: If crow's feet extend to the cheeks, in some cases botox of the crow's feet can help. This relaxes the muscles that cause these wrinkles. Often a combination treatment is advised that also improves the quality of the skin on the cheeks.
- Skincare: Medically advanced skincare (cosmeceuticals) can firm, hydrate, and prolong the effects of treatments at home. Consider retinol, peptides, sun protection, exfoliants and antioxidants that help with skin renewal and support.
The choice of treatment depends on your skin condition, desires and the cause of the Wrinkles on the cheeks. During the consultation, together we will establish the most effective treatment plan.
