The Best Candidates
You are an ideal candidate for facial implants if you look for improvement, in the way your face looks and you are in a physically healthy condition.
Most candidates are younger people interested in a fundamental change in the shape and balance of their face. For older patients, facial implants may bed used in conjunction with other surgical procedures, such as a forehead lift or a facelift, to help restore a more youthful look.
Risk of Complications
Like every surgery, the face lifting includes bleeding,
infection and reaction to the anesthesia. Those
related with the face lifting might be of less importance,
such as loose of hair. The most common complication
is the hematoma (blood collection), which can vary
from a huge blood accumulation to obvious collections
when the facial edema persists.
Your initial consultation
One of the most important things you can do to help your surgeon create the results you expect is to clearly define what you want. Look for photos that will help you describe the precise change you would like to see.
Be honest in discussing your expectations with us, and don’t hesitate to ask any questions or express any concerns you may have. During your initial consultation, we will evaluate your health and explain how a facial implant will change your appearance.
Your sugery
It takes approximately 4 to 5 hours. It might
be performed under local anesthesia or with general
anesthesia. We will make an incision that will
go from the back of the ear, preauricular, and
will continue by the parts where the skin is naturally
folded into the back of the other ear hiding it
by the hair for the classic techniques.
