Are cheek implants a bad idea?

Facial fillers are now long lasting, forgiving, and are able to accomplish the same result as cheek implants. Cheek implants can cause bony resorption which worsens mid face projection.

Unfortunately, most of the "facts" in your question will need clarification; cheek implants are excellent option for properly selected patient and, in experienced hands of board certified plastic surgeon.. I would suggest you to schedule in person consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon who has experience with cheek implants and discuss your options in details. Good luck.

Cheek implants offer permanent augmentation to the mid face rather than fillers which offer a temporary augmentation. Cheek implants are manufactured in a large array of thicknesses, sizes, and shapes. In our practice, we use Implantech brand of solid silicone cheek implants with a excellent Success rate.
