CHEEK AUGMENTATION MIDDLETOWN, CT | DR. MARI REBANE-MAZZOTTA, MD

UNDERSTANDING CHEEK AUGMENTATION

Cheek augmentation using cheek implants offers a solution for
individuals seeking to restore facial fullness lost through aging or
enhance their natural cheekbone prominence. The ideal candidate is
typically a mature adult in good overall health with realistic
surgical expectations.

TYPES OF CHEEK IMPLANTS

Cheek implants are categorized into three primary types:

 	* MALAR IMPLANTS:
 	* SUBMALAR IMPLANTS:
 	* MALAR/SUBMALAR COMBINATION IMPLANTS:

IMPLANT MATERIALS

While solid silicone remains the most common material, cheek implants
can also be manufactured from high-density porous polyethylene and
expanded polytetrafluoroethylene.

THE CHEEK AUGMENTATION PROCEDURE

Dr. Rebane-Mazzotta performs cheek augmentation using precise surgical
techniques. Small incisions are strategically made inside the mouth
near the gumline or within the lower eyelid to minimize visible
scarring.

SURGICAL PROCESS

 	* Create a specialized pocket for the implant
	* Insert and secure implant to bone or soft tissue
	* Close incision with sutures

The procedure typically takes 30-45 minutes and is performed under
local anesthesia in an outpatient setting.

RECOVERY AND RESULTS

Patients can expect temporary soreness, swelling, and numbness
following the procedure. Most individuals return to work within a
week, with complete recovery averaging six weeks. Cheek implants
provide immediate, long-lasting results unlike temporary facial
fillers.

POTENTIAL PROCEDURE RISKS

 	* Potential asymmetry
	* Temporary sensation changes
	* Rare implant rejection
	* Possible implant shifting

CHEEK LIFT DANBURY, CT | MICHAEL BAROODY, MD

UNDERSTANDING CHEEK LIFT PROCEDURES IN DANBURY

A cheek lift is a surgical procedure designed to restore youthful
facial contours by repositioning descended cheek fat pads. As
individuals age, gravity, sun exposure, and daily stresses cause
facial tissues to descend, creating deep creases and an aged
appearance.

IDEAL CANDIDATES FOR CHEEK LIFT

 	* Patients with good skin elasticity
	* Individuals typically between forty and seventy years old
	* Patients experiencing facial volume loss
	* Those seeking facial rejuvenation

SURGICAL APPROACH

Dr. Baroody performs cheek lifts using advanced techniques that
typically involve strategic incisions within the hair and above the
upper gum line. The procedure generally takes two to three hours and
aims to suspend cheek fat pads over underlying muscle structures.

PROCEDURE DETAILS

During the surgery, Dr. Baroody develops a precise surgical plane
along the cheekbone, releasing soft tissue attachments. Sutures are
carefully placed to suspend cheek fat and create a more youthful
facial contour. General anesthesia is typically recommended to ensure
patient comfort.

RECOVERY AND EXPECTATIONS

Patients can expect minimal discomfort following the procedure. Most
individuals return to normal activities within ten to fourteen days.
Initial swelling and bruising are normal and typically subside within
several weeks.

NON-SURGICAL ALTERNATIVES

For patients seeking less invasive options, injectable fillers like
Radiesse or Juvederm can provide temporary cheek volumization. These
non-surgical alternatives can offer subtle facial rejuvenation with
minimal downtime.

POTENTIAL RISKS AND CONSIDERATIONS

Like all surgical procedures, cheek lifts carry potential risks
including temporary nerve injury, infection, and anesthesia-related
complications. Smoking can significantly impair healing and is
strongly discouraged before and after surgery.

CHEEK LIFT IN DANBURY | BAROODY PLASTIC SURGERY

UNDERSTANDING CHEEK LIFT PROCEDURE

A cheek lift is an advanced facial rejuvenation technique designed to
raise the cheek fat pads, restoring a more youthful appearance. As
individuals age, gravity, sun exposure, and daily stressors cause
facial fat to descend, creating deep creases between the nose and
mouth.

IDEAL CANDIDATES FOR CHEEK LIFT

 	* Patients with good skin elasticity
	* Individuals between forty and seventy years old
	* Those experiencing cheek volume loss
	* People seeking facial rejuvenation without extensive surgery

SURGICAL APPROACH AND TECHNIQUE

Baroody Plastic Surgery performs cheek lifts using precise surgical
methods. The procedure typically takes two to three hours and involves
creating strategic incisions within the hair and above the upper gum
line. Dr. Baroody develops a specialized plane along the cheekbone,
releasing cheek fat pad attachments and suspending them for optimal
results.

ANESTHESIA AND RECOVERY

The procedure is performed under general anesthesia, ensuring patient
comfort. Most patients experience minimal discomfort and can return to
normal activities within ten to fourteen days. Patients should expect
some initial bruising and swelling, which gradually resolves over
several weeks.

ALTERNATIVE NON-SURGICAL OPTIONS

For patients seeking less invasive alternatives, Baroody Plastic
Surgery offers non-surgical cheek enhancement using dermal fillers
like Radiesse or Juvederm to volumize and contour the cheeks.

POTENTIAL RISKS AND CONSIDERATIONS

While cheek lift complications are infrequent when performed by a
board-certified plastic surgeon, patients should understand potential
risks. Smoking can significantly impair healing, and individual
healing capabilities vary.

LONG-TERM RESULTS

A cheek lift provides lasting facial rejuvenation, helping patients
look younger than they would without the procedure. However, natural
aging continues, and results will evolve over time.
