How are Facial Implants Performed?
The procedure varies depending on the implant site:
Consultation & Planning: Detailed assessment of facial structure and discussion of desired results.
Anesthesia: Usually local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia for comfort.
Incision & Implant Placement: Small, discreet incisions are made inside the mouth or near natural facial creases.
Positioning & Fixation: The implant is carefully positioned and secured for optimal aesthetics.
Closing Incisions & Recovery: Sutures are placed to minimize visible scarring; swelling is managed post-surgery.
Surgery typically lasts 1–2 hours per implant area, with most patients returning home the same day.
