Whether it’s the high cheekbones you desire, a pronounced chin, or a defined jawline, custom facial implants offer a range of options:
A small or receded chin can distort facial proportions, making features like the forehead or nose appear overly prominent. Chin implants are tailored to fit individual needs, enhancing the chin’s shape and contour. By doing so, they bring harmony to the overall facial appearance.
For those with a narrow or weak jawline, where the face seamlessly blends into the neck, jaw implants offer a solution. These implants create a strong, defined jawline, enhancing the overall facial shape. Additionally, they can provide the illusion of a slimmer facial and neck contour, adding to the aesthetic appeal.

How Is Facial Implant Surgery Performed?
Our state-of-the-art outpatient surgical center is where we bring aesthetic visions to life. A final review will be completed on the day of surgery. The procedure may be performed under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia. Our surgical approach prioritizes minimal scarring, with most incisions made inside the mouth.
Occasionally we may need to place incisions under the chin; in these cases, incisions are always made in a way to minimize visible scars. Once the incisions are made, your surgeon will be able to place the implants in position and close the openings with absorbable sutures or stitches that will be removed later. Post-surgery, patients can expect a brief recovery period at our center before heading home.
What to Expect During Recovery?
After surgery, you may have dressings or bandages in place to protect the incision sites and support the implant as you heal. You will receive instructions about when and how to remove these if they are not removed by your surgeon. We will call you the night of your surgery to check on you, make sure you understand your post-procedural care and answer any questions you may have to ensure a smooth recovery.
It is essential to minimize facial and jaw movements during the initial healing phase. Some swelling and bruising are expected but will gradually subside, revealing the enhanced facial contours. Your surgeon may prescribe some pain medication to improve your comfort during the first few days of recovery.
Risks and Side Effects of Facial Implants
All surgical procedures come with inherent risks. For facial implants, potential risks include infection, implant shifting, unfavorable scarring, and anesthesia complications. However, when performed by experienced surgeons like ours, these risks are significantly minimized. It’s crucial to discuss any concerns during the consultation to make an informed decision.
