Define and contour your facial features with facial implants in Florham Park, NJ


 

DEFINED FACIAL FEATURES, ENHANCED BEAUTY

Some individuals are born with naturally high cheekbones and beautifully contoured facial features. However, these supermodel types are also few and far between. If you are unhappy with your facial profile, there are solutions. Dr. Joseph Fodero places facial implants such as cheek or chin implants at his Florham Park, New Jersey practice, Northeastern Plastic Surgery. This procedure is tailored to each patient’s unique appearance and is designed to cosmetically enhance certain characteristics of the face. Dr. Fodero has an exceptional eye for facial aesthetics and skillfully provides natural-looking results. The goal of the procedure is to simply improve the patient’s natural beauty, not completely alter his or her distinguishing features.

FACIAL IMPLANTS PLACEMENT PROCEDURE

Before beginning any treatment, Dr. Fodero conducts an initial consultation. The purpose of this meeting is to determine your candidacy for facial implants. Dr. Fodero will perform an examination, and will inquire regarding your medical history and aesthetic goals. Be prepared to discuss what you like and dislike about your facial appearance. From this information, Dr. Fodero can map out the best course of action for achieving your cosmetic goals. The procedure is then performed as follows:

  • The patient is given general anesthesia to sleep comfortably throughout the surgery.
  • For chin implants, an incision is made on the inside of the lower lip or beneath the chin. For cheek implants, an incision is made on the inside of the upper lip or the lower eyelid.
  • The implant, which is customized prior to the surgery to suit your facial structure, is carefully placed.
  • Incisions are closed with sutures.

Recovery from the procedure is relatively quick. Dr. Fodero and his caring team will provide detailed aftercare instructions to ensure a fast and safe recovery period, including applying ice packs, resting, and tending to incisions. Patients can typically return to work after approximately one week.
