Cheek implants for flat midface? (Photo)

February 22, 2015
Asked By:Lissa724 in North Arlington, NJ

I'm currently in the process of planning orthognathic surgery (lefort 1 and trying to rotate mandible to a more horizontal plan, getting rid of my chin implant, and having genioplasty done). However my midface is quite long abd also very very flat. I think I would benefit from lefort 3 but since it's too risky and not really done, will cheek implants suffice? I hate how flat I am!
