The Surgical Procedure for Chin or Cheek Implants

For a chin implant, the first step is to meet with Dr. Beck and speak with him about what you envision. With the help of the VECTRA 3D imaging system, you have the opportunity to see how various implants will change your appearance and make the right decision. The procedure involves placing a small incision, hidden beneath the chin, into which the implant is placed, and the incision closed.

For cheek implants, you have various options in size and shape, and we work closely with you to select the perfect enhancement for your unique facial structure. If you are having another procedure, such as a facelift, the implants can be placed through the same incision. If not, incisions are placed within the mouth in most cases.

Recovery After Chin or Cheek Implants

The recovery from these procedures is not exceptionally difficult. After surgery, the treated area will be bandaged so the area heals correctly and is protected. The bandages will remain for several days, and you will need to restrict your activities for at least one week. Some swelling and bruising is normal, but our use of specialized vitamin supplements can help you heal more quickly and ward off inflammation and bruising. There is little pain associated with these procedures, and after the first few days, it is not likely you will need to use any pain medication.

A Defined Jaw Can Dramatically Improve Your Facial Balance

A firm, beautifully-structure chin and jawline are big factors in overall facial balance. If you are unhappy with the size, shape, or appearance of your chin, it can be altered to bring a higher level of harmony to your other features. To achieve the most attractive result, the correct size, shape, and projection of the chin implant must be chosen, and there are many available options. Dr. Beck has a real eye for facial balance and will help you select the augmentation that will best enhance your other features, whether in chin or cheek implants, or both.
