Whether to accentuate certain facial features or add volume to deficient areas, facial implant surgery offers an alternative to facial fat grafting or fillers for structural augmentation of your face. While chin implants are the well-known implants, there are other implant options, such as temple, nose, cheek, and jawline angle implants. At the time of your consultation, Dr. Li will analyze your face in detail and discuss whether Facial Implant Surgery is a good option for you.
For patients with a smaller chin, chin implants add balance to the face by matching the chin to the nose. For patients with hollowed temples, temple implants can restore youthful volume. Nose implants can be used to add height to your nose. Cheek implants can restore cheek volume loss. Lastly, jawline angle implants can increase the definition, height, and/or width of your jaw angle. Small incisions in hidden areas, sometimes inside the mouth, are used to place the facial implants. Implants can also be carved or custom-designed with 3D imaging for best match.
What are the benefits to
You will be evaluated by Dr. Li at the time of your initial consultation to determine if Facial Implant Surgery is the best option for you. You will be required to quit smoking and oral contraceptives 4 weeks before surgery. You will need to complete testing before surgery, which may include a physical with your PCP/primary physician, blood work, and an ECG. Prescriptions for your surgery will be sent to your local pharmacy, please obtain these medications ahead of time and bring them to your surgery. A deposit is required to secure your surgery date. Full payment is required 2 weeks before surgery; payment options include cash, cashier’s check, or credit through Alphaeon or CareCredit.
General anesthesia can sometimes cause generalized body soreness and fatigue for a couple of days. Maximum discomfort will occur in the first few days after surgery and gradually improve. You will need to use ice packs after surgery to decrease swelling. You will not be allowed to engage in any significant exercise (e.g. running, lifting weights) for 4 weeks. You may experience temporary bruising, swelling, numbness, or a burning sensation involving your face; bruising and swelling takes several weeks to improve; numbness takes a couple months to normalize. Scars may be red and firm for approximately 6 months before they soften and fade.
