Cheek Augmentation Wilmette, IL | Dr. Mark L. Zukowski, MD

Understanding Cheek Augmentation: Restoring Facial Harmony

Cheek augmentation is a sophisticated cosmetic procedure designed to restore volume, balance, and youthful contours to the midface region. By strategically adding volume through implants or fat grafting, this technique can dramatically transform facial aesthetics.

The Science of Facial Balance

The ideal facial structure relies on precise proportions and symmetry. Flat or sagging cheeks can disrupt facial harmony, potentially aging or masculinizing one's appearance. Cheek implants provide a solution by creating a more balanced, refined facial profile.

Procedure Overview

• Customized approach based on individual facial anatomy
• Options include Medpor or silicone implants
• Potential combination with fat grafting techniques
• Incisions made either inside the mouth or under the lower eyelid

Medpor Implants: Advanced Surgical Technology

Dr. Zukowski specializes in Medpor cheek implants, a superior technology with over 25 years of proven effectiveness. These implants are surgically fixed with titanium screws, ensuring stability and natural integration with facial bone structure.

Candidacy for Cheek Augmentation

Ideal candidates include individuals experiencing:

• Flat or thin cheek contours
• Age-related volume loss
• Desire for facial feminization
• Overall good health and non-smoking status

Surgical Considerations

While Medpor implants are considered extremely safe, patients should understand potential surgical risks, including anesthesia reactions and infection possibilities. A comprehensive consultation with Dr. Zukowski will address individual concerns and expectations.
