Get cheeky

S

What do cherub-faced babies and Angelina Jolie have in common? Youth and beauty, according to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, because the key to a fresh, beautiful face is all in the cheeks. Restoring volume to the cheek not only eliminates hollowness, but improves the look of the eyes, nose and mouth. And with 8,000 cheek implants, 47,000 fat injections and 1.1 million hyaluronic acid fillers used to plump the cheeks in 2007, it looks like cheeks are rising to the top of the beauty checklist.
