What Are Facial Implants?

Facial implants add definition to the chin, jawline, or cheeks, helping create a more balanced and sculpted look. If you want to bring more strength to a weak chin, enhance your jawline, or restore lost volume in your cheeks, implants offer a long-term solution. Designed to blend naturally with your features, they create a smooth, well-defined appearance that complements your face.

Facial Implant Benefits

  • Strengthen the appearance of the chin, jawline, or cheeks
  • Enhance weak or recessed features for better facial balance
  • Restore volume lost due to aging
  • Provide a long-term alternative to dermal fillers
  • Improve overall definition for a sculpted, natural look
  • Create harmony between facial features

Best Facial Implant Candidates

Facial implants may be an ideal option if you want to improve definition in specific areas of your face. You may be a candidate if you:

  • Feel your chin, jawline, or cheeks lack structure or balance
  • Want a long-lasting solution instead of temporary fillers
  • Are in good overall health and do not smoke
  • Have realistic expectations about results and recovery

A consultation with Dr. Vu will help determine if facial implants are the right choice for you. If you’re also looking to refresh signs of aging, a facelift can be combined with implants to enhance both structure and overall facial rejuvenation. Dr. Vu can discuss your options and create a customized treatment plan that best suits your goals.

Your Facial Implant Experience

Your experience starts with a consultation with Dr. Vu, a board-certified plastic surgeon. During this visit, he will listen to your concerns, answer any questions you have, and create a customized treatment plan based on your facial structure and goals.

Facial implant surgery is performed under anesthesia to keep you comfortable. Small incisions are made in discreet areas, such as inside the mouth or along natural creases, to minimize visible scarring. The implants are carefully placed and secured to create balanced, natural-looking contours.

Most patients return home the same day. Swelling, tightness, and mild discomfort are common in the first few days but gradually improve. Light activities can usually be resumed within a week, while swelling continues to subside over the next several months. As healing progresses, the final results become more defined, enhancing your natural features with improved contours.
