Cheek Augmentation Revision Doctor Recommendations

May 30, 2009
Asked By:1925virginia in Danville

I had Cheek implants placed about two years ago at the age of fifty and unfortunately for me the surgeon cut through the periosteum, muscles, and nerves in the left side of my face. For one year, we thought I had nerve damage until another surgeon went in and saw the damage. The muscles are detached from the orbital rim of my face. I can not use my upper lip well and I have no fold from the corner of my mouth to my nose anymore. Can anyone make a suggestion or referral?
