Breast Implants |
| |
|
Breast implants are made with either a smooth or a textured surface. Silicone shelled implants were once said to last a life time, although new reports have concluded that a silicone filled implant's life is averaged at 18 years and saline implants are said to last approximately 12-14 years.
Depending on the desired shape you wish to achieve, your cosmetic |
|
|
surgeon may choose a round or shaped breast implant for your surgery.
There are various types of breast implants to choose from. The surface of an implant is either smooth or textured. A smooth implant is as smooth as the surface of a balloon and a textured implant feels a little like sandpaper. Textured breast implants
were made because it was said that they would reduce the risk of capsular contracture. (Capsular contracture occurs when the scar or capsule around the implant tightens, squeezing the implant, and causing the breast to harden.)

Breast Reduction

Cheek Augmentation / Cheek Implants are a common procedure used to bring balance to the facial structure by way of correcting a deficient cheek area due to congenital deficiency, age-related bone desorption or facial trauma. A weak cheek structure can make your face appear drawn and gaunt. It may also give the appearance of a 'fleshy' lower face.

The end result should be a balanced relationship between the structures of the face
It compensates the lack of volume of women's and men's cheeks.
In some cases, it is a good idea to perform it together with a face lift, since it accentuates the rejuvenating effect.
It makes women's cheeks look more attractive by making them more prominent and well-defined, two features that are considered characteristic of female beauty.
It balances the relationship of volume between the cheeks and the nose. This is why this surgery is usually performed together with a rhinoplasty.
The surgery is done under local anesthesia if alone and under general anesthesia if combined with other procedures like rhinoplasty or face lifts. The procedure usually takes 45 minutes to an hour and a half. It is commonly performed alone or in combination with forehead, eyelid, facelift, nasal or chin surgery.
Cheek implants are performed by making a small incision near where the implant will be placed. The incision is made either in the crease under your lower eyelashes or inside the mouth where your gums and lips meet.
Then, the surgeon creates a pocket in the facial tissue. The implant is inserted and sometimes stitched to more solid internal facial features that lie deeper in the skull. Then, the incision is closed, often with one stitched.
Sometimes, cheek implants are designed for reconstructive or rejuvenation. When the most common implant, silicone rubber, is used, supportive tissue eventually forms around the implant after a few weeks. Once fully healed, the implant feels like your normal underlying bone structure.
