Facial Implants
A
sculpted, contoured and youthful-looking face has long been considered
the ‘ideal’ beauty standard, and having a well-defined jawline,
sculpted cheekbones and balanced facial features are some essential
elements of an attractive appearance. Facial implants are a set of
surgical procedures that can define and sculpt the face to correct any
imbalances and create a more balanced, attractive look. Facial implants
include chin implants and cheek implants and are typically performed as
part of a facelift or facial rejuvenation procedure.
Dr. Zarrabi has several years of experience in performing facial
implant surgery, and has created a more youthful and attractive look
for dozens of patients. The surgery is typically performed under local
or general anesthesia, and helps to correct asymmetries of the face
while sculpting and defining the facial contours.
Key Benefits of Facial Implants
Facial implants can be inserted to improve the contours of the face and
create more definition along the jawline and upper cheek area. Key
benefits of facial implants include:
- Sculpted and toned look
- More youthful appearance
- Reduced appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
- Improved profile
- Increased facial balance
How Facial Implant Surgery is Performed
Facial implant surgery is designed to restore the facial tissues by
inserting implants into the skin through a small incision. Chin
implants require inserting implants through the mouth near the lower
lip, or directly under the chin area; after the implant is inserted,
bandages and tape are applied to the chin to hold the implant in place
and promote healing.
Cheek implant surgery involves inserting the implant through incisions
made near the lower eyelid or upper lip area. These facial compartments
offer the most natural positioning for the implants, and the implant is
inserted inside a small ‘pocket’ to create a natural look. After the
cheek implants are inserted, the face may be wrapped and bandaged to
promote faster healing.
Facial implants are typically part of a complete facelift or other
surgical procedure, but can also be performed independently to enhance
or sculpt key facial compartments.
Dr. Zarrabi has several years of training and experience in the field
of plastic and cosmetic surgery, and offers facial implants along with
other facial rejuvenation procedures at his exclusive plastic surgery
center in Santa Monica. Set up a consultation with Dr. Zarrabi to learn more about the benefits of facial implant surgery and decide if this procedure is the right match for your needs.
