How much does cheek augmentation cost?

The average cost of cheek implants (malar augmentation) is $3,876, according to the latest statistics from the American Society of Plastic Surgeons. This average cost is only part of the total price – it does not include anesthesia, operating room facilities or other related expenses. Please consult with your plastic surgeon's office to determine your final fee.

A surgeon's fee for cheek augmentation will be based on his or her experience, the type of procedure used and the geographic office location.

Many plastic surgeons offer patient financing plans for cheek augmentation, so be sure to ask.

Cheek augmentation costs may include:

Surgeon's fee
Hospital or surgical facility costs
Anesthesia fees
Prescriptions for medication
Medical tests and x-rays

When choosing a board-certified plastic surgeon for cheek augmentation, remember that the surgeon's experience and your comfort with him or her are just as important as the final cost of the surgery.
