Cheek Implants (Malar Augmentation)
Dr. Kahn uses facial
implants to improve and enhance facial contours. These implants will
help provide a more harmonious balance to your face and features so
that you feel better about the way you look.
Facial implants can enhance your appearance and bolster your
self-esteem. If you are looking for improvement, not perfection, in
your appearance and are realistic in your expectations, you may find
that a facial implant is the right choice for you.
Facial augmentation is performed on every age group. Dr. Kahn
frequently uses facial implants to bring better balance to the features
of younger patients. For instance, a teenage girl may want her nose
reshaped as well as her chin brought forward so that these features are
better proportioned and in balance. A more mature patient may choose to
have an implant in conjunction with a facelift. A stronger chin or
higher cheekbones will give the mature patient the more youthful
appearance they're seeking. Implants may also be selected to fill out a
face that appears "sunken" or "tired."
Cheek Implants are a simple way to make
a huge difference in the proportion of your face and there are no
visible incisions. It is an outpatient procedure performed here in our
state-of-the-art surgical facility, eliminating the costs and need for
hospitalization.
Dr. Kahn uses IV sedation and a local anesthetic, and the surgery
usually takes less than an hour. Although there is some swelling and
minimal discomfort, you may return to your normal activities after 7
days.
