Cheek Implants

Monday, February 1st, 2010

As we age the normal cheek volume descends downwards producing two classic characteristics of ageing.

Firstly the loss of normal cheekbone volume and definition and secondly deeper nasolabial folds

this can be addressed temporarily by fillers – in particular the new voluma from the juvederm range

for a permanent result patients may opt for cheek implants, these are similar to chin implants but are designed to sit over the cheekbone giving a more prominent cheekbone. They are inserted through a tiny incision on the inside of the cheek and give an amazing result.

Chin position on profile is a very important determinant of facial harmony. A strong chin denotes a powerful confident man and an attractive beautiful woman. This is often found in cartoons and caricature’s which depict superhero’s with strong jawlines and weak people with a receding chin. A weak chin can be easily corrected by a chin implant with or without rhinoplasty to address a patients overall facial harmony  www.sydneyfacialplastics.com.au/cosmetic.html#chin

A chin implant can be placed through an external or internal incision and is a day stay procedure.
