Frequently Asked Questions of Cheek Bone Contouring
 
FAQ : Criteria
Who is a candidate for Cheek Surgery ?
In general, the best candidates for cheek surgery are people :
- In good physical health.
- Psychologically stable.
- Wanting to add definition to the face, especially the upper face.
- Understanding the healing process.
- Understanding the limitations of the procedure.
- No known allergies to the implant material used.
- Having realistic expectations for the outcome.
- The above is only a partial list of the criteria that your surgeon will consider in determining whether or not this procedure is appropriate for you. Be sure to ask your surgeon if he / she considers you an ideal candidate for cheek surgery.
 
FAQ : Surgical Procedure
Where will your surgery be performed?
Your operation may take place in an office-based facility, a freestanding surgical center or a hospital outpatient facility. Sometimes, your plastic surgeon may require that you stay overnight. Your doctor will make such a recommendation based on your overall medical condition and whether another cosmetic procedure was performed simultaneously with the facial implant surgery.
How much pain is there?
The amount of pain depends on the method used, and varies from person to person. Local anesthetic is used to reduce pain during the surgery.
How quick is recovery for Cheek Surgery?
Your plastic surgeon will provide you with instructions about post-operative care. There will be dietary restrictions as well as limitations to your activities. Again, these instructions will vary, especially if another procedure was performed along with your implant surgery. However, you should be aware that your ability to move your mouth and lips may be diminished temporarily. Stitches used to close the incisions inside your mouth usually dissolve within about 10 days.
 
FAQ : Result
