Cheek Augmentation: How Long Before I Can Have Revision Surgery?

May 11, 2011
Asked By:Cincinnati4904 in Cincinnati, OH

I had bilateral malar cheek implants done on 2/15/11. Unfortunately the right side implant shifted the day of the surgery and is not where it should be. The left side looks good- but there is no improvement on the right side. How long should I wait before undergoing the revision surgery? Also, will there be the same amount of swelling involved as with the original surgery?
