Cheeks Implant Impede my Natural Cheeks - California

Absolutely. You are so right. This is so important to find a surgeon who is very experienced with facial implants. Mine was not. He didnt even have the sizers to determine the size and style of the implants. We just chosed by photos in internet. And as you've mentioned right, the nerve damage is one of the problems which could occur. My right cheek is still numb and paralysed. And all these complications make you nervous and doubt.

I must admit, there was no pain. But it takes a lot of time to see the result. The swelling after is really awful. You should try a filler first. You can see the result immediately and there are no complications and risks. In general I would say, an implant is like to augment a facial bone and it is good to augment the malar bone and a filler gives you a fuller look and it's perfect for the midface.

Yes, you are right. About 6 months after you can see the result, In my case after the swelling was gone, and it took really a lot of time, the result was still unsatisfied. It didnt fit to my face and it was misplaced. So I have them removed 1 month ago. The next problem I have to deal with is that my right cheek is still numb and a bit paralysed, so when I speak, my mouth is slighty crooked. I really hope it will go away. I am sure cheek implants can give you a great look, but most important is to choose the right implant, the right size and style and a really experienced surgeon, who can give you advices.
