| Facial implants are designed for augmentative, reconstructive
or rejuvenative purposes. Available in a wide range of
sizes and styles for the chin, jaw, nose and cheek, implants
add or restore contour and/or proportion to the face. |

Technique:
The
procedure follows a similar pattern for all facial
areas. The surgeon makes a small incision near where
the implant will be placed, either in a crease or
inside
the mouth at the gum/lip junction. Then a pocket
is made in the facial tissue, the implant inserted,
and the incision
is stitched. The process generally takes 1-2 hours,
usually with general anesthesia. The incision is bandaged
or
taped, and stitches are removed in 5-10 days (sutures
placed inside the mouth will dissolve in a similar
period of time). Sometimes facial implants are inserted
at the
same time as a facelift, nose or eyelid procedure
is performed.
