Facial Implants Dallas

Facial implants can be very effective in filling flat or depressed areas and creating the fuller, rounder contours that are associated with youth. Facial implants are used where normal bone contour is deficient because they create the cosmetic improvements that would occur if more bone fullness were present in the area. The effect should be subtle so that there is no hint of an implant being present. They should look as though the overlying soft-tissue contours are there because the bone has a naturally full contour that harmonizes with your face. The chin and cheeks are the best sites for implants. Fat Transfer or Fillers are usually preferred where soft tissue contour is deficient and there is satisfactory skin elasticity. If skin elasticity is deficient, and there is excess skin causing moderate to deep lines, some type of lifting procedure (facelift, browlift, midface lift) should be used in place of, or in addition to, implants. 

Choosing the Right Implant Material for Facial Enhancement

Solid silicone implants have been the gold standard for many years. They are made with very fine edges that blend into surrounding tissue imperceptibly. They are flexible and will adapt to irregular bony contours, they can be carved at surgery to provide and optimal custom fit, they are easily stabilized, and they have a very low complication rate. Other materials are available and work well for particular problems.

Customized Implant Options for Every Facial Area

Various styles and sizes of implants are available for each facial problem area. Implants are available to augment the following areas:

  • Chin (discussed under Chin Reshaping) can produce stronger, more angular chin and jaw contours
  • Cheek (malar), Low Cheek (submalar), or combined cheek and low cheek (extended malar)
  • Tear Trough – for the area just below the eye
  • Prejowl – to fill area in front of the jowls
  • Mandibular Angle – to create a wider more angular jaw just below and in front of the ear
  • Nasal Dorsum – to create a more prominent nasal profile
  • Alar Base – to fill depressions under and around the base of the nose

Summary of Facial Implant Procedures

Facial implants are usually placed through incisions inside the mouth so there are no visible scars. A light general anesthetic is usually preferred. A long-lasting, local anesthetic is also used to maintain optimal comfort during recovery. A small incision is made in the mouth and a pocket is developed in the tissue over the bone where the implant is to be placed. Sizers (identical in size and shape to the actual implants) are fit to the area until the best contour is obtained. The actual implant of the same size as the “sizer” is selected and positioned in the tissue pocket. The implant is usually stabilized with a tiny screw or sutures to prevent displacement. Dissolving sutures are placed, and usually resorb within one week. Tissue heals around the implant to provide additional stability. Recovery is rapid and there is minimal discomfort for most patients.
