Cheekbone Implant
Description
Cheekbone implantation, a type of facial plastic surgery, aims to enhance the contours of the mid-face by adding volume or altering the shape of the cheekbones. The procedure begins with a detailed consultation where the surgeon evaluates the patient's facial structure, discusses aesthetic goals, and selects appropriate implant size and shape. On the day of surgery, the patient is typically placed under general anesthesia to ensure comfort and safety. The surgeon makes small, discreet incisions inside the mouth, near the upper gums, or occasionally through lower eyelid access. This approach minimizes visible scarring. Through these incisions, the surgeon carefully creates a pocket over the cheekbone to precisely place the custom or pre-formed silicone, polyethylene, or other biocompatible implant. Once the implants are positioned and verified for symmetry and desired projection, the surgeon secures them, often using small screws to prevent movement and ensure stability during the healing process. The incisions are then closed with sutures, and sometimes small drainage tubes are inserted to prevent fluid accumulation. The entire procedure typically takes one to two hours. After surgery, patients are usually monitored in a recovery area before being discharged. Postoperative care includes managing swelling and discomfort with prescribed pain medications and following specific care instructions such as keeping the head elevated and avoiding strenuous activities. Follow-up appointments are scheduled to monitor healing progress and ensure the implants are integrating smoothly with the patient's natural facial structure. Most individuals can return to normal activities within a few weeks, although complete healing and final results may take several months.
