Cheek Lift & Augmentation in Beverly Hills, CA

Reclaim youthful contour and midface definition with a customized cheek lift or augmentation performed by Dr. Kami Parsa — a renowned oculofacial plastic surgeon based in Beverly Hills. With a precise understanding of facial anatomy and aesthetics, Dr. Parsa helps patients from Beverly Hills, Los Angeles, and surrounding communities achieve natural, age-defying results that honor each person’s unique features and cultural identity.

Why Midface Aging Is a Major Concern in Southern California

In Los Angeles and Beverly Hills, where sun exposure, expressive lifestyles, and high-definition scrutiny are everyday realities, the midface is often one of the first areas to show age. Over time:

  • Cheek fat pads descend from their youthful position
  • Tear troughs deepen, creating a tired or hollow appearance
  • Nasolabial folds (lines from nose to mouth) become more prominent

This transformation — sometimes subtle, sometimes drastic — can disrupt facial harmony. That’s why so many Beverly Hills and Westside patients seek targeted solutions that restore contour without looking artificial.

Dr. Parsa’s Approach to Cheek Lift Surgery

A midface or cheek lift addresses sagging tissues and volume loss using minimally invasive, deep-plane techniques that respect the natural anatomy. Dr. Parsa offers two primary approaches tailored to the patient’s age, facial structure, and skin elasticity:

Endoscopic Midface Lift

Through tiny incisions placed discreetly in the hairline and mouth, Dr. Parsa uses an endoscope to access deep tissue layers. The sub-periosteal approach lifts and repositions the cheek fat pads and ligaments, restoring youthful projection. He may use fine sutures or an absorbable implant (Endotine) to secure the lifted tissue in a natural position.

SOOF (Sub-Orbicularis Oculi Fat) Lift

Ideal for patients with prominent lower eyelid bags or early signs of midface descent, this technique targets the fatty tissue just beneath the eye. By lifting the SOOF, Dr. Parsa improves the transition between the lower eyelid and cheek, minimizing puffiness and shadowing.

Cheek Augmentation: Defining Cheekbones, Elevating Confidence

Cheek augmentation is ideal for individuals who have lost cheek volume or who’ve never had well-defined cheekbones. Dr. Parsa uses durable, medical-grade implants — Gore-Tex, Medpor, or Silastic — inserted through hidden incisions inside the mouth to:

  • Enhance midface structure
  • Improve facial proportions
  • Create symmetry without fillers or repeated treatments

Each implant is selected and sculpted to match your unique anatomy, ethnic background, and aesthetic goals. The result is a subtle, elegant enhancement — never overdone.

Anesthesia & Recovery in a Beverly Hills Surgical Setting

Both cheek lift and cheek augmentation procedures are performed at our Beverly Hills surgical suite under Monitored Anesthesia Care (MAC) — a patient-friendly alternative to general anesthesia. Benefits include:

  • No breathing tube or ventilator required
  • Faster wake-up and recovery times
  • Less post-operative nausea

Patients typically return to social activities in 7–10 days. Chewing may feel tight at first, and swelling gradually improves over 2–4 weeks, with optimal results visible at 3–4 months.

Navigating Your Cheek Surgery Journey With Confidence

Dr. Parsa believes deeply in patient education, customization, and safety. During your consultation, he will:

  • Evaluate your facial structure and aging pattern
  • Discuss your goals and concerns in depth
  • Recommend the most appropriate approach based on your skin type, age, ethnicity, and lifestyle
  • Outline recovery timelines, risks, and expected results

Our office provides white-glove coordination for both local and out-of-town patients, including virtual consults, surgical planning, and aftercare support.

Words cannot express how thankful and appreciative I am to have found you. I am deeply grateful for you, for your generosity and caring nature as pertaining to my medical condition. As you know, I was apprehensive about having further surgery, but you are and have been reassuring and confident in the type of procedure you would perform in order to fix my eyelid from the beginning. The fact that you are not pushy and gave me the time and space to make the decision on my own allowed me to prepare myself mentally and emotionally, that really made a difference. Besides from that, your continuous generosity made me confident that you were the right doctor for the task at hand. You will never know how appreciative I am of that. I would also like to let you know how pleased I am with the results of the surgery. I have not felt this comfortable in years. My parents are also very grateful since this was my 14th surgery. You have a true gift. Thank you again for your patience, time, concern, and overall care. I pray that God continues to give you strength to help people who truly need life-changing medical procedures.

Dr. Parsa is an amazing doctor. Warm and very caring. I had my eyes done a couple years ago and I couldn't be happier. Dr. Parsa likes to take the conservative approach which I greatly appreciate in a doctor when it comes to cosmetic surgery. I also go to Dr. Parsa for Botox and he always knows just the right amount. The staff in Dr. Parsa's office are all terrific!
