Is every case of swelling after cheeks implants indicative of infection? 3 months have passed and now my right side is swollen.

Hello dimaI would advice you visit or contact your plastic surgeon about this concern and all other post-op concern.

If you have had 'rebound swelling' with the first few months after any type of facial implant surgery, infection should be suspected. There would be no other explanation for it.

Thank you for asking the question.
Normally in duration of a 3 month post procedure, most of the implant should have settled down by now. But if you are having any new on-set swelling then you need to keep a question of infection in mind and you should seek an urgent consult with your Plastic surgeon. If you had any trauma over the implants, that could explain the sudden swelling due to some hematoma formation. But if you not had a trauma then you need to seek the possibility of the infection in mind. So to keep things safe, please consult the Plastic surgeon whom you had your procedure with.
