I have always had a flat face and I am generally OK with that, but my cheeks now concave as I am getting older. It is more significant on my right side than on my left and bothers me the most when I look at myself in a semi-profile. I am not interested in having humungous cheekbones. I also do not want to use fillers, I want a permanent solution. Would implants fix this asymmetry, and can implants add subtle volume in the areas I outlined in my attached pictures, if so, which type of implant?

Answer: Cheek implant candidate Cheek implants are placed for patients who have a weak and recessive maxilla along with a flat cheek profile. The area of the circle described in the photographs represents malar augmentation, not sub-malar augmentation. Cheek implants are manufactured in a variety of sizes, thicknesses and shapes, and are inserted through an intra-oral approach under a brief general anesthetic as an outpatient surgical procedure. Digital computer imaging can be helpful to see with cheek profile might look like. For many examples, please see link and the video below

Answer: Malar or Submalar Cheek Implants Malar or Submalar Cheek Implants. Combination malar and submalar silicone implants will augment your cheeks and improve the cheek contour. The implants can be modified at the time of surgery to reduce the asymmetry.
