Cheek Augmentation (Improve Contoured Facial Appearance)

· Those in Bangkok, Thailand for a week or more.
· Those with flat and/or sagging cheeks.
· Those who wish to have more prominent cheeks.
· Those who wish to achieve better facial proportions by increasing the size of their cheeks.
· Those who wish to have dimples.

Cheek Augmentation is a procedure performed to increase the cheek volume and enhance your facial appearance. At our affiliated hospital, there are a few treatments available:
· Cheek augmentation
· Cheek dimple formation
· Cheek lift
· Cheekbone reduction
· Buccal fat removal (Local anesthesia or general anesthesia)

The procedure uses implants to increase the size of your cheeks, making them plumper. The implant will provide more balance to your overall facial appearance. If you're bothered by flat or sunken cheeks, this surgical procedure can help you gain more prominent cheeks and a youthful appearance.

Moreover, cheek dimple formation is done by making a small incision on the inside of the mouth; buccal fat removal is for the ones with wide chubby cheek, it is done by removing the buccal fat pads surgically. A cheek lift is done to lift up the saggy skin around the cheek, whereas cheekbone reduction is for the ones with wide face symmetry, causing the face to look manlier than necessary.

At our affiliated hospital, you are required to stay at the hospital for 1 night if you have done a cheek lift, cheekbone reduction, or buccal fat removal under general anesthesia (GA).

1. Consultation with the doctor will be done
2. Anesthesia will be administered
3. Incisions will be made within the mouth, on the upper lip, or lower eyelid, depending on your condition
4. The implant will be inserted into a pocket made within the facial tissue
5. The site will be closed with sutures; additionally, there may be bandaging or taping of the area

Q1: Are there alternatives to cheek implants?
A1: Yes. Fillers, fat grafting and a mid-face lift are all possible ways to acquire a more prominent cheek, but they may not last as long as cheek augmentation with implants.

Q2: What should I expect post-operation?
A2: Note that swelling and bruising are typical. You may also experience a degree of numbness that will normally subside in 1 - 3 months after surgery. Extensive pain is not typical with malar augmentation with implants; however, if you have a low threshold for pain, ask your surgeon to prescribe an analgesic in advance.

Q3: When will I start seeing the results?
A3: Results can be observed immediately. At first, swelling may cause the implants to appear larger than they actually are. It may take a couple of months to see a more refined result.

Q4: Are the results permanent?
A4: Yes. They are designed to last your lifetime.

Q5: When will the sutures be taken out?
A5: If sutures are used, they will be removed in 5 to 10 days.
