What Are Facial Implants?
Facial implants are medical-grade devices made of solid silicone or other biocompatible materials, placed deep beneath the skin to enhance the face’s natural structure.
Sometimes the chin lacks projection, or your jawline might feel a little soft, or even the cheek might fall a little flat. Facial implants can bring clients the definition they’re looking for.
At the practice of Harry Ching, MD, in Las Vegas, NV, patients can undergo facial implant surgery with Dr. Ching to achieve sharper contours, improved symmetry, and a stronger, more refined chin, jaw, or cheek.
Facial implants are medical-grade devices made of solid silicone or other biocompatible materials, placed deep beneath the skin to enhance the face’s natural structure.
Chin implants can help clients improve the projection and overall shape of their chin, balancing out their lower face with the rest of their features. Chin implants can also help correct a recessed chin, enhance profile, and create a stronger jawline.
Jaw and cheek implants are used to enhance the definition and contours of the lower and midface. Jaw implants can help create a sharper, more angular lower face, while cheek implants restore volume that may be lost with age or give a stronger bone structure to those who desire more prominent cheekbones.
The best candidates are individuals who feel their facial features lack definition or balance. This could mean a recessed chin, a weak jawline, or flat cheeks, which can make the face appear tired or less structured.
Facial implants work well for both younger patients seeking stronger definition and older patients experiencing volume loss. If you are looking for a long-term solution rather than temporary fixes, implants are often a strong option.
A consultation with Dr. Ching will help determine whether implants alone are the right move or whether combining procedures will yield a more balanced result.
Facial implants deliver a level of definition that can be difficult to achieve with non-surgical treatments alone.
They also create a more sculpted, long-lasting appearance by enhancing bone structure rather than just adding surface volume. This can improve the side profile, sharpen the jawline, and restore balance between the upper and lower face.
Get started with a consultation at Dr. Ching’s Las Vegas practice, where your goals, facial structure, and treatment options are carefully reviewed. During this, you can expect:
Once you decide to proceed, your facial implant surgery can be scheduled, and you will receive instructions on how to prepare.
Depending on your facial implant treatment plan, anesthesia will either be local with sedation or general anesthesia.
Your incisions will be placed inside the mouth or along natural creases, and the implants will be positioned to match your natural structure before being secured in place.
Once everything is set, your incisions will be closed, and you will be monitored before being discharged to go home.
When it comes to combining facial implants with other procedures, Dr. Ching looks at how your chin, jawline, and cheeks work together.
If you are interested in additional treatments, facial implant surgery pairs well with:
Rhinoplasty is one of the most common procedures combined with facial implants, especially chin implants. The nose and chin play a major role in your profile, so adjusting both at the same time can create better balance.
If there is excess fat under the chin or along the jawline, liposuction can be combined with implants to improve definition further.
Eyelid surgery can help address volume loss and tired-looking eyes at the same time. Since your midface and eye area are closely connected, tightening or refining the eyelids can create a more rested and balanced appearance.
Your Guide to Post-Facial Implants Care
Recovery after facial implant surgery takes a little time as swelling and bruising settle. The first few days are when swelling is most noticeable, along with some tightness or soreness in the treated areas. Most patients plan to be away from work or social activities for about a week while the initial swelling improves.
By the second week, your features begin to look more defined and closer to your normal appearance. Some mild swelling can last a bit longer, but it continues to fade over the following weeks as your final results come into focus.
The cost of facial implants in Las Vegas depends on the areas being treated and the complexity of the procedure. Pricing will also reflect anesthesia costs, facility fees, and follow-up care.
