Can a submalar cheek implant be placed more laterally, to allow space for paranasal implant? How many cc's does the implant fill? Does it lift sunken cheek tissues to volumize?
Answer: Submalar implants augment and lift the midface Submalar implants are placed below the malar region and are used to add volume to the midface. Sometimes they can be combined with a malar implant or a shell implant can be used to augment the entire midface and malar region. It does not lift sunken cheek tissues but lifts the midface or fills it just below the cheekbones as the name suggests. If you want higher cheek mounds then you need a malar implant.

Answer: Placement of submalar cheek implants A submalar implant can be placed more laterally to allow a paranasal implant. The submalar implants come in small, medium, large, and extra-large and can be placed in the area of the cheek that needs augmentation. It simply adds volume to the area that needs restoration.

Answer: Cheek Implant Placement I am no longer a fan of submalar cheek implants. There are too many potential problems. Instead, there are now excellent soft tissue filler substances available that can be used to enhance of the contours of the facial soft tissues with nice results and greater predictability.

Answer: Relation between Cheek implants and Paranasal implants Cheek implants are best placed on or just under the Malar eminence. As such they do not reach as centrally and inferiorly as the paranasal implants which are placed around the lateral/inferior margin of the pyriform aperture of the nose to raised a deficient maxilla.

Answer: Submalar Cheek Implants Submalar implants wiil add volume to the cheeks. These implants are usually solid and therefore are not sized by cc's which describe liquid volume. When you ask about "paranasal" implants, I assume you are talking about implants placed at the base of nose to increase projection of the maxilla above the lips. If this is not correct, contact me and I'll answer your question. The "paranasal" implant will not interfer with placement of the submalar implants.
