Cheek Implants

High, prominent cheekbones are one of the facial features most frequently associated with beauty. Today, this underlying facial structure can be created with implants.

Whether you want heightened and well-formed cheekbones like the ones you had when you were young, or you've never had well-defined cheekbones, cheek implants may produce a dramatic change. For many people, cheek implants can provide new facial contours and dimensions to bring facial features into better balance.

Cheek implants are made in various shapes and sizes. They are made out of both solid and semi-solid materials that have been used successfully for years. The surgery can enhance facial contours and brings balance to the facial features. It is also used to correct asymmetries and congenital defects.

In general, the best candidates for cheek implants are people wanting to add definition to the face, especially the upper face and having realistic expectations for the outcome.

Planning your surgery……….

Cheek augmentation is a very individualised procedure. At your initial consultation, the surgeon will discuss your goals for the surgery and will check for medical conditions that could cause problems during or after surgery. He will explain the techniques and anaesthesia and any risks involved, and will answer any questions you may have, especially those regarding your expectations and concerns about the results.

For surgery in Cyprus, you need to stay for a minimum of 7 days, which gives time for your recovery and primary post-operative care before returning home.

Getting back to normal……..

There isn't usually significant discomfort after surgery but plan on taking it easy at first. Your surgeon will give you more specific guidelines for gradually resuming your normal activities but above all, get plenty of rest and allow your body to spend its energy on healing. Most patients can resume work just a few days after surgery.
