What are Cheek Implants?
Also known as cheek augmentation, this procedure uses implants to increase the size of your cheeks, making them plump and your appearance younger. Using silicone as the implant, your cheeks will increase in size, which will provide more balance to your overall facial appearance. The implants are inserted through an incision made inside the mouth in order to prevent visible scarring post-surgery. Our affiliated clinic offers cheek implant procedures that can be done under either local or general anesthesia.
Cheek Implant Procedure
1. Incisions will be made within the mouth, on the upper lip, or lower eyelid.
2. The implant will be inserted into a pocket made within the facial tissue.
3. The site will be closed with sutures. Additionally, there may be bandaging or taping of the area.

FAQ
Q1: Are there alternatives to cheek implants?
A1: Yes. Fillers, fat grafting and a midface lift are all possible ways to acquire a more prominent cheek.
Q2: What should I expect postoperation?
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.
