Facial implants are cosmetic or reconstructive procedures designed to enhance or restore facial contours. Whether you're considering them for aesthetic reasons or due to trauma or congenital defects, it’s important to understand what they involve.
Facial implants are solid materials placed under the skin to enhance facial features such as the cheeks, chin, or jawline. These are typically made of biocompatible materials like silicone or polyethylene.
Most patients can return to normal activities within a week. Swelling and bruising are common initially. It may take several weeks for final results to fully appear.
When performed by a board-certified surgeon, facial implants are generally safe. However, like any surgical procedure, there are potential risks. Always follow post-operative care guidelines.
Facial implants can be a life-changing decision for those seeking facial enhancement or reconstruction. However, it’s vital to consult a qualified professional, weigh the risks and benefits, and make an informed choice.
