Cheek Implants Chevy Chase

Cheek implants are used to enhance facial definition and create a more prominent cheek bone. These implants are made of solid silicone or similar material and are placed on top of the cheek bone through incisions in the mouth. You will be on a liquid or soft diet the first few days. Most swelling will subside by ten to fourteen days after surgery at which time you may resume exercise. This procedure is typically done under general anesthesia as an out-patient procedure, meaning you will be able to go home that same day. Full recovery to normal activity level typically takes 2-4 weeks.
