Facial Cosmetic Surgery
Facial cosmetic surgery allows us to enhance or redefine your appearance. Some patients choose this procedure in the aftermath of injury or disease, while others may simply want to change the way they look.
Facial Implants
Facial implants are FDA-approved plates that can be inserted in front of the bone. They can help you balance disproportionate facial features, strengthen a weak jawline, or accentuate your cheekbones to create a more youthful appearance when surgically placed.
The best facial implant candidates are patients whose skin has loosened around the face, with the surrounding skin retaining enough elasticity to be repositioned successfully.
The Procedure
Facial implants are typically performed by a Board Certified maxillofacial surgeon. Surgery may be performed in an office surgical suite, outpatient surgery center, or hospital. Time in surgery is about 30 minutes to one hour.
The procedure may be performed under local anesthesia (awake but sedated) or general anesthesia (asleep). You can discuss the appropriate type of anesthesia with your maxillofacial surgeon and anesthesiologist.
Typically, you can return home the same day, though sometimes an overnight stay at the hospital is needed.
The facial implant procedure varies depending on the type of implant. The most common facial implants are chin, cheek, or jaw implants. You may need more than one type of implant to achieve the results you're looking for.
