Cheek Augmentation
Prominent, full cheeks give us a youthful, healthy appearance. They also balance out the face and can make the nose and chin look smaller in certain patients. Cheek implants are surgical procedures designed to correct flat cheeks area and to provide more attractive and distinctive look. These procedures can also benefit those with asymmetries or congenital defects. Cheek implants are often recommended to patients undergoing nose and other facial surgery to achieve better facial balance. The cheek area is enhanced by placing an implant on the top of the cheekbones. Today’s cosmetic surgeons offer a wide range of differently shaped implants to highlight different areas of the cheek bone.
As a result of aging, skin and soft tissue “fall off the bone” as ligaments loosen. The “sagging cheeks” condition may be helped by a cheek implant, but may require a cheek lift to place the soft tissue back on the bone.
When augmentation is performed incorrectly it can make us look very unnatural. There is a definite balance, so choosing a skilled plastic surgeon is imperative. In addition to cheek augmentation, Dr. Evdokimow offers a wide range of surgical and non surgical treatments for the face.
