UNDERSTANDING CHEEK IMPLANT SURGERY

High, prominent cheekbones represent a key symbol of facial beauty. As
individuals age, the cheek mound naturally descends, creating a
hollowed appearance. Cheek implants offer a surgical solution to
address these concerns, improving facial symmetry and restoring
volume.

PROCEDURE OVERVIEW

Cheek implant surgery, or malarplasty, is a precise cosmetic procedure
designed to enhance facial contours. During the consultation, J.
Randall Jordan, MD will evaluate your unique facial architecture and
discuss realistic expectations.

SURGICAL DETAILS

 	* Procedure duration: Approximately 30 minutes
	* Anesthesia options: General anesthesia or "Twilight Sleep"
	* Incision location: Inside the mouth, just under the upper lip
	* Implant material: Medical-grade synthetic polymer

RECOVERY AND EXPECTATIONS

Most patients experience mild to moderate swelling and can typically
return to work within one week. The recovery process requires minimal
discomfort and allows for normal bathing the day after surgery.

RECOVERY GUIDELINES

 	* Avoid strenuous activities for the first week
	* Consider a soft or semi-liquid diet initially
	* Protect cheek area from potential impacts

LONG-TERM RESULTS

Cheek implants are designed for lifelong enhancement. While surgical
options provide permanent results, non-surgical alternatives like
dermal fillers offer temporary volume restoration with minimal
invasiveness.

RISKS AND CONSIDERATIONS

When performed by a board-certified facial plastic surgeon, cheek
implant surgery carries minimal risks. The medical-grade synthetic
polymers used have an excellent safety record, with extremely rare
instances of implant rejection or infection.

CHEEK IMPLANTS (MALARPLASTY) RIDGELAND, MS | SMITH J GEORGE MD

UNDERSTANDING CHEEK IMPLANT PROCEDURES

High, prominent cheekbones represent a significant aesthetic feature
associated with beauty. As facial aging progresses, cheek volume can
diminish, resulting in a downward drift and hollowness. Cheek implants
offer a surgical solution to address congenital asymmetries,
age-related volume loss, and facial structure enhancement.

PROCEDURE OVERVIEW

Cheek implant surgery, or malarplasty, involves a comprehensive
consultation to assess facial architecture and patient expectations.
The procedure can be performed independently or in conjunction with
other facial rejuvenation techniques like facelifts.

SURGICAL DETAILS

 	* Performed under general anesthesia or twilight sedation
	* Incisions made inside the mouth, under the upper lip
	* Customized implant placement for individual facial structure
	* Approximately 30-minute operation

RECOVERY AND EXPECTATIONS

Patients typically experience mild to moderate swelling for several
days. Most individuals can return to work within one week, with
minimal discomfort. A soft diet and avoiding strenuous activities are
recommended during initial recovery.

KEY RECOVERY GUIDELINES

 	* Next-day office follow-up
	* Normal bathing permitted the day after surgery
	* Avoid direct impacts to cheek area for several weeks

LONG-TERM RESULTS AND CONSIDERATIONS

Cheek implants are designed for lifetime durability when appropriately
placed. For patients seeking less invasive alternatives, dermal
fillers provide temporary enhancement with minimal downtime.

IMPLANT SAFETY

When performed by a board-certified facial plastic surgeon, cheek
implant procedures carry minimal risks. Medical-grade synthetic
polymers like silastic or Medpore® offer excellent safety profiles
with extremely rare rejection or infection rates.

ALTERNATIVE OPTIONS

Patients may consider dermal fillers as a non-surgical alternative,
requiring maintenance treatments approximately twice annually to
sustain optimal results.
