I'm considering cheek implants to balance my long narrow face and provide a more symmetrical face. I've always been very thin with a small amount of body fat. I've never liked my narrow small-set eyes. Would the implant help lessen this feature (my eyes) by creating more width or do you have any recommendations to help balance this problem? Thank you in advance for reading
Answer: Cheek Implants One would not expect cheek implants to make the eyes look wider apart. That is not usually an illusion that it creates in midface augmentation. It may help with facial symmetry and proportion however. But this can be proven one way or the other by computer imaging.

Answer: Cheek implant candidate Cheek implants are placed for patients who have a flat maxilla and a flat cheek profile. Cheek implants are manufactured in a large variety of sizes and shapes and are composed of Silastic. The implants themselves are placed through an intraoral approach under a brief general anesthesia as an outpatient surgical procedure. A better set of pictures are required to make a determination about being a candidate for the procedure. For many examples of cheek implants, please see the link below to our before-and-after results
