Cheek Lift (Midface Lift)
Feel more like yourself again
Sometimes, when you look in the mirror, something feels a little off. Maybe your cheeks don’t sit where they used to. Maybe your face looks more tired than you actually feel. You can’t quite put your finger on it, but you know your face has changed.
You’re not alone. These quiet changes in the middle part of the face are completely normal with time. But if they’ve been bothering you or making you feel less like yourself, midface surgery might be worth a gentle conversation.
At RGIMS in Guwahati, we offer midface surgery to help restore the natural fullness and lift of your cheeks, soften the lines around your mouth, and bring a sense of balance back to your face. The results aren’t drastic or dramatic. They’re subtle, natural, and designed to help you feel good every time you see your reflection.
This is not about looking younger. It’s about looking like you, just a little more rested and refreshed.
What is Midface Surgery?
The area between your eyes and mouth plays a quiet but powerful role in how youthful and refreshed you look. Over time, this part of the face—your cheeks, the space under your eyes, and those deep smile lines can start to show the earliest signs of aging. You may notice that your cheeks seem to sink a little, or that there’s a shadow under your eyes even after a good night’s sleep.
That’s where cheek lift surgery comes in. It’s a gentle way to restore the natural contour and fullness of your midface. Instead of making you look different, it brings back the soft volume and structure you had before age or stress started to wear it down. Think of it as helping your face tell the story you actually feel inside—energetic, confident, and at ease.
At RGIMS, we don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all solution. Your face is unique, and your treatment should be too. A cheek lift is planned thoughtfully, based on your facial structure, your concerns, and what you’re hoping to achieve. Whether it’s softening those smile lines, lifting sagging cheeks, or brightening the under-eye area, every step is customised for you.
What makes a cheek lift so special is that it improves several areas at once. It can subtly lift the cheeks, reduce hollowness, and even smooth out the lower eyelid area. The changes are noticeable, but never obvious. People might tell you that you look well-rested, or that something about you seems lighter. That’s the beauty of it- it works with your face, not against it.
Most people find the recovery quite manageable. You might feel some swelling or tightness in the beginning, but that fades quickly. Within a week or so, many return to their usual routine, looking fresher and more confident than before.
If you’re starting to see a tired look that doesn’t match how you feel or if you’ve simply noticed that your cheeks aren’t as full and lifted as they used to be, a cheek lift could be the gentle refresh you’ve been searching for.
Book your private consultation with Dr Rahul Gogoi, leading Maxillofacial and Facial Aesthetic Surgeon at RGIMS, and take the first step toward feeling more like yourself again.

The types of midface procedures we offer
Every face is different, so the approach depends on what you need. Some people want a light lift. Others may need more structure or volume. We’ll help you decide what’s right for you, but here’s a simple breakdown of what we offer:
Midface Lift
This helps lift sagging cheeks and soften the deep lines between your nose and mouth. It’s ideal if you’ve noticed a tired or pulled-down look in the centre of your face.
Deep Structural Lift
If the sagging is more pronounced, this option works on a deeper layer beneath the facial bones for stronger, longer-lasting support.
Cheek Enhancement or Fat Transfer
If your cheeks are naturally flat or have lost fullness, we can add gentle volume using either implants or your body’s own fat.
No matter the technique, our goal is to keep you looking like yourself-just more at ease and in balance.
What does midface surgery cost?
We believe in clear, honest pricing with no surprises
Midface lift surgery starts at INR 2,75,000
This includes your consultation, the surgery itself, anaesthesia, three days of stay in our private recovery room, post-operative medications, and advanced monitoring during the procedure to keep you safe and comfortable.
Cheek enhancement or fat transfer ranges between INR 2,00,000 and 2,75,000, depending on what’s needed.
If you’re visiting us from outside Guwahati, we’ll make sure you’re well taken care of. We offer airport pick-up and drop, fresh home-cooked meals, and the option to stay longer if you need more rest time. Additional stay is available at INR 3,500 per day.
Is this the right choice for you?
Midface surgery may be worth considering if:
- • You feel your face looks more tired, sunken, or aged than you feel on the inside.
- • You’ve noticed that your cheeks have dropped or that lines around your mouth are more defined.
- • You want to restore balance to your face without making drastic changes.
- • You are generally healthy, don’t smoke, and can take some time off to rest and recover.
- • You want results that feel like you—not a new face, just a refreshed one.
If this sounds like you, you don’t have to figure everything out on your own. A consultation with Dr Rahul Gogoi is a safe space to ask questions, talk honestly, and explore whether this step feels right for you.

Quick answers to questions you may have
Will I look like a different person?
- Not at all. In fact, the best compliment you’ll probably hear is that you look well-rested or like you just got back from a holiday. You’ll still look like you—just a little softer, lifted, and more confident.
How long is recovery?
- Most people feel ready to go back to light daily life within ten to fourteen days. There might be some swelling and tightness at first, but it fades gently with time. We’ll stay in touch and guide you through every stage.
Are the scars noticeable?
- No. The incisions are placed very carefully, usually inside the mouth or in natural creases under the eye. Once healed, they’re nearly invisible.
Does it hurt?
- You’ll be under anaesthesia during the surgery, so you won’t feel a thing. Afterward, there may be some soreness or tightness, but we’ll give you medication and care instructions to manage it easily.
Can this be done with other facial surgeries?
Yes, and often it works really well when combined with eyelid surgery, chin contouring, or a subtle fat transfer. We’ll talk through all your options so you can decide what feels right.
