If it's something that bothers you, dermal filler can be used to treat the area, and, typically, a practitioner will use anywhere from 0.5ml to 2ml filler per side, depending on the individual and how deep the lines are.
In reality many of my patients looking for improvement of a specific area only need about 1-2ml on average. Most people are surprised at the difference just one syringe of filler can make to a problem area.
Overfilling results when too much filler is placed and the area look unnatural or artificial. To avoid this, it is helpful to evaluate each area in a mirror as it is filled. If it is estimated that 1.0cc of filler would be needed, check the area after 0.5cc is placed before adding additional filler to that area.

They are ideal for replacing volume loss, enhancing cheek volume, and can improve the appearance of the lower eyelid by volumising the upper cheek area. We recommend using as little as 1ml per session for an enhanced appearance.

When you have had too much filler, then you may appear to have a bulging forehead, an overly pointy and sharp chin, and overly protruding cheekbones. Furthermore, the filler can stretch and weigh down your skin over time, which is known as filler fatigue.
Cheek filler is a low-risk procedure, but complications may include: Bleeding. Bruising. Bumps that look like acne.
Fortunately, dermal fillers work very quickly, and you won't have to wait twelve months to see the full benefits of your injections.

For cheeks, typically clients require 2-6ml for cheeks or 1ml for a 'top up'. The cheeks are a large surface area and so require more volume to see a significant change. How long does cheek filler last? Dermal filler the cheeks lasts around 9 months to a year on average according to manufacturers.
