SURGERY

UNDERSTANDING CHEEK IMPLANT SURGERY

Cheek implants are sophisticated medical-grade materials surgically
inserted to enhance cheekbone prominence and restore facial volume.
These precision-crafted implants come in various shapes and sizes,
allowing surgeons to customize the procedure to individual aesthetic
goals.

IMPLANT CHARACTERISTICS

 	* Composed of Silastic, an inert medical material
	* Available in small, medium, and large sizes
	* Multiple shape options: malar, submalar, and combined
malar/submalar

SURGICAL APPROACH

The Portland Center for Facial Plastic Surgery performs cheek implant
procedures through a precise intra-oral approach. Surgeons create a
pocket directly over the maxilla bone, ensuring optimal implant
placement and minimal visible scarring.

PROCEDURE DETAILS FOR HILLSBORO PATIENTS

Cheek implant surgery typically takes approximately one hour and is
performed under anesthesia administered by a board-certified physician
anesthesiologist. The procedure involves creating a small incision
above the teeth and gumline to insert the implant.

CANDIDACY AND CONSIDERATIONS

 	* Ideal for patients with flat maxilla or diminished cheek profile
	* Suitable for individuals seeking permanent facial volume
enhancement
	* Appropriate for patients with fully developed facial structures

RECOVERY AND EXPECTATIONS

Patients can anticipate approximately two weeks of swelling and
bruising following the procedure. Dissolvable sutures are placed along
the gumline, and patients will receive comprehensive post-operative
care instructions.

POTENTIAL COMPLEMENTARY PROCEDURES

Cheek implants can be combined with other facial cosmetic procedures
such as facelifts to achieve comprehensive facial rejuvenation.

RISKS AND CONSIDERATIONS

While rare, potential complications may include infection, implant
displacement, or adverse reactions. The surgical team provides
thorough pre-operative consultations to minimize risks and ensure
patient safety.
