Cheekbone plastic surgery

Cheekbone plastic surgery

Harmonious high cheekbones is a sign of youth and beauty. If you want to stop the time or change your facial features, cheekbone surgery is the ideal option. Every year the face loses its volume due to a decrease in the total amount of subcutaneous fat, as well as thinning of the bone structures. Especially the cheekbones lose volume. For general rejuvenation, the appearance of the cheekbones is very important, they should be “on top”.

Indications for cheekbone plastic surgery

Cheekbone plastic surgery is the surgery that is used solely for aesthetic reasons. There are no medical indications.

Cheekbone plastic surgery is indicated for:

• Age-related changes.
• Fractures and deformities of the cheekbones.
• Asymmetry of the cheekbones.
• Retraction of the nasolacrimal sulcus.
• Individual features of the structure, insufficient expression of the cheekbones.

Varieties of cheekbone plastic surgery

Cheekbone plastic surgery can be performed using various techniques. Let’s consider the most popular ones.

Cheekbone contouring

Cheekbone plastics is based on the introduction of fillers.These fillers are composed of  hyaluronic acid. They are introduced into problem areas. However, cheekbone contouring does not guarantee a long-lasting result. To maintain this result, the cheekbone contouring should be repeated every year.

Reducing plastic surgery of the cheekbones

Surgical intervention involves cutting off part of the bone tissue. This is a serious operation that is accompanied by a long recovery period.

Liposuction of cheeks and removal of Bisha’s lumps

This option will help emphasize the line of the cheekbones and make the face more harmonious.

Cheekbone augmentation is performed on the basis of lipofilling and mandibuloplasty.

The essence of lipofilling is the transplantation of the patient’s own adipose tissue. The main advantage is the absence of allergic reactions and the risk of implant rejection. The ideal result lasts for 2-3 years.

If we are talking about enlarging of cheekbones, mandibuloplasty can also be used. In this case, solid implants are used. As for the material for transplantation, it is made individually. It all depends on the anatomical features of the patient. The result of surgery is maintained throughout life.

Particular features of cheekbone plastic surgery

We propose to learn about the plastic of the cheekbones based on the use of implants. The duration of the surgical intervention takes within 60 minutes.

In most cases hard dentures made of biocompatible porous polyethylene or silicone implants are used to correct the shape of the cheekbones. Installation of endoprostheses can solve many problems. Implants do not deform or dissolve. During the biointegration period, the polyethylene implants are filled with the patient’s tissues. Fixation of the structure takes place on the basis of the so-called “microscopic screws”. Thus, the risk of displacement of implants is zero.

Silicone implants are more flexible and can be different sizes and shapes. All endoprostheses that are used in the clinic of Andrey Leonidovich Kharkov are absolutely safe and do not cause any allergic reactions and, moreover, rejection. Implants are placed under the muscle. They look as natural as possible. It is almost impossible to distinguish  them from natural cheekbones.

The plastic surgeon, together with the patient, selects endoprostheses at the stage of planning the surgical intervention. A reliable assistant will be computer technology which allows you to “try on” various options for endoprostheses even before performing cheekbone plastic surgery. They can be conditionally divided into 3 groups:

• To increase expressiveness and volume.
• To increase the width of the face.
• Combined which solve even the most difficult tasks.

As for the shape, cheekbone implants can be elliptical, oval, anatomical. Anatomical implants are ideal for severely deficient cheekbones. With the help of oval, the front part of the cheekbones is perfectly corrected.

Rehabilitation period

After plastic surgery of the cheekbones the patient stays in the hospital of the clinic of Andrey Leonidovich Kharkov for 24 hours. During the week you should not strain your jaws; liquid food is a priority.

After 7-9 days hematomas and edema gradually disappear. The stitches are not removed after the operation, the patient must wear a special bandage for five days. The rehabilitation period lasts 10-12 days.

For a month after cheekbone plastic surgery, the following recommendations of specialists should be adhered to:

• It is forbidden to touch and press on the cheekbones.
• Do not use masks, creams, decorative cosmetics, scrubs.

Experts recommend rinsing the mouth after each meal with a special disinfectant solution.
