Do orbital rim implants usually make scleral show worse?

In our practice for over 30 years, we have been placing cheek implants through an intra oral approach with an excellent success rate. They're placed directly over the bone underneath the periosteum of the maxilla. That way, they don't shift around or float in the soft tissues in the face. It's...

The key question is whether you want a 'spot' area of mid face augmentation (paranasal region, I see no indication for needing any premaxillary augmentation) or more of the total midface augmented. (paranasal-maxillary-infraorbital) Knowing which approach is being used will determine whether...

The way to make that determination is to have computer imaging done of some potential cheek augmentation changes. The key to male cheek augmentation is that most men what the high cheekbone look and not the fuller apple cheek effect.

Almost all standard cheek implants are placed intraorally which would have no adverse effects on the lower eyelids. In custom infraorbital-cheek implants, which are usually placed through the lower eyelid, lower eyelid lifting procedures are usually performed with their placement in patients...

You have a complete one-sided facial asymmetry in which it is vertically shorter. The distance from the eyebrow to the jawline is more compressed which is why the eyebrow and eye are lower, the cheek more narrow/flatter, the nose deviated to that side and the jawline shorter/raised. To properly...

Unlike the implant settling seen in the chin due to the tight soft tissue chin pad where considerable pressure exists, infraorbital implants do not experience the same changes. They do not have a tight muscular cover and any implants settling/bone settling is very minimal.
