Cheek Augmentation Overview
Manhattan plastic surgeon Dr. Sherrell J. Aston performs cheek augmentation surgery for individuals desiring a more youthful and defined mid-face. Cheek implants are particularly beneficial for patients lacking prominent cheekbones due to their natural facial architecture.
Surgical Techniques for Cheek Enhancement
Dr. Aston offers multiple techniques for cheek augmentation, each designed to provide personalized facial contouring:
- Silicone Implants:
- Porous Polyethylene:
- Hyaluronic Acid Fillers:
- Fat Grafting:
Procedure Details
Cheek augmentation is an outpatient procedure performed under general or local anesthesia. The surgery typically takes approximately one hour, with implants placed through small incisions inside the mouth.
Recovery and Results
Patients can expect initial bruising and swelling, which typically subsides within two weeks. While results are immediately noticeable, the final aesthetic will soften and become more natural over several months.
Procedural Considerations
Dr. Aston carefully analyzes each patient's facial structure to recommend the most appropriate cheek augmentation technique. For patients with asymmetrical cheekbones, implants can be individually carved to create balanced, harmonious results.
Patient Selection
Ideal candidates for cheek augmentation include individuals seeking permanent facial volume enhancement and those with naturally flat or undefined cheek contours.
