Facial Implants Surgery in Sacramento & Granite Bay

Many people want a full face with striking contours, but not all patients have these features naturally. Facial implants are an effective solution for improving the shape and volume of the face. Dr. Scott Green, a respected, board-certified plastic surgeon, uses cheek, chin and jaw implants to transform his patients’ faces. They are a good choice for patients who prefer a permanent alternative to periodically volumizing the face with dermal fillers. Although female patients outnumber male patients when it comes to most cosmetic procedures, many men choose facial implant surgery to enhance the masculinity of their face.

TYPES OF FACIAL AUGMENTATION

CHEEK ENHANCEMENT

CHEEK ENHANCEMENT

Cheek implants come in multiple styles. Malar implants rest against the cheekbone to achieve a higher projection for the cheek. Submalar implants restore a rounded fullness to sunken cheeks. Combined implants are shaped so that they can achieve both goals simultaneously.

CHIN AUGMENTATION

CHIN AUGMENTATION

A chin implant can alter the size or projection of the chin. It is a popular choice for patients with a weak or recessed chin who want to add shape to the bottom of their face. An implant can also extend the chin so that it is more proportional to the projection of the nose and forehead. Furthermore, some patients find that adding an implant helps to minimize a double chin.

JAW IMPLANTS

JAW IMPLANTS

Implants at the bottom of the face can transform a rounded, ill-defined jaw into a strong, straight jawline. With implants, the face becomes distinct from the neck. A sharp, angular jawline is considered particularly attractive on a male face.

Facial Implant Procedure Details

Facial implant surgery is an outpatient procedure that Dr. Green performs with local anesthesia. To begin, he places his incision(s) inside the mouth where any subsequent scarring hides easily. Through this incision, he gently inserts the implant, positioning it against the bone and natural tissue to achieve the patient’s requested appearance. Once the implant is in place, Dr. Green sutures the incision to complete the surgery.

Facial ENHANCEMENT Recovery and Results

Because facial implant surgery is less invasive than other cosmetic surgeries, the recovery is also easier. Swelling and bruising tend to be mild and clear up in a matter of days. Lingering discomfort can be easily managed with pain medication. Most patients feel (and look) well enough to return to work in under a week.

Facial implants are intended to be permanent, so patients can enjoy their new contours indefinitely. If they choose to replace or remove an implant later, this can be accomplished with a simple procedure.

Facial Implant Costs

The price of facial implant surgery depends on a variety of factors, including the location of implant, the size of the implant and the type of material used to make the implant. During a consultation, Dr. Green can provide a complete quote after devising a custom surgical plan. Although insurance does not cover elective, cosmetic procedures like facial implants, Dr. Green’s office does accept plastic surgery financing options through CareCredit and M-Lend Financial Services.

Benefits of Facial Implants

Patients in Sacramento can use facial implants to:

  • Add definition to the face
  • Minimize signs of aging by restoring fullness to the cheeks or reducing jowls
  • Separate the lower portion of the face from the neck
  • Boost confidence
