Cheek and Chin Implants Overview

What Are Facial Implants for Cheeks and Chin?

To enhance your facial structure and create a more balanced, attractive appearance, cheek and chin implants in Philadelphia with Dr. Allan Wulc may be right for you. At W Cosmetic Surgery®, Dr. Allan Wulc uses his expertise to reshape and refine facial contours for a new, subtle look that looks natural and harmonious. Whether you wish to strengthen a weak chin or add volume to your cheeks, these implants bring long-lasting, transformative results.

Chin Implants

Ideal for patients with a “weak” or recessed chin, chin implants can dramatically improve the profile by providing better definition to the jawline and creating a more balanced facial appearance. This procedure can also reduce jowls and enhance facelift results. For men who desire a more masculine jawline, chin implants are customized for more structure and volume.

Cheek Implants

For restored volume and a gentle lift to the midface, cheek implants can help create a more youthful, sculpted appearance by enhancing the natural contours of the cheeks. This procedure is ideal for patients experiencing age-related volume loss or wanting to improve their facial structure with more prominent cheekbones.

Fillers or Implants? What’s Right for You?

Facial implants provide lasting results that enhance and define the face in ways that dermal fillers cannot. While fillers offer temporary volume and contour, implants provide a long-lasting, structural solution that brings definition and symmetry. Patients who undergo cheek or chin augmentation often feel more confident, as these procedures can dramatically improve overall facial harmony.

What Can Cheek and Chin Implants in Philadelphia Do for My Facial Structure?

Cheek and chin implants can:

  • Strengthen or reshape the jawline to create facial balance
  • Add volume to sunken or underdeveloped cheeks
  • Enhance the overall structure of the face
  • Create a more elegant facial structure
  • Reduce the appearance of jowls or a “double chin”
  • Provide a more youthful, refreshed appearance
  • Correct a receding chin

What Does the Procedure Entail?

Dr. Wulc meticulously performs cheek and chin implants in Plymouth Meeting to create a natural-looking balance to the facial structure.

Chin Implants

A small incision is made either under the chin or inside the mouth to minimize scarring. The implant is carefully positioned along the bone to enhance the chin’s projection and definition. Dr. Wulc secures the implant with sutures to prevent movement during healing.

Cheek Implants

Cheek implants are inserted through small incisions inside the mouth or near the hairline. These implants are then positioned to restore volume to the midface and create more defined cheekbones. The incisions are closed with dissolvable sutures, and no visible scarring is left behind.

These procedures are performed on an outpatient basis, typically with local anesthesia and intravenous sedation.

What Can I Expect During Recovery from Cheek and Chin Implants in Philadelphia?

Recovery from cheek and chin implant surgery is typically smooth and relatively quick. While you may experience some swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort, these symptoms generally subside within a week or two. Most patients can return to light activities within seven to ten days, with full results appearing as residual swelling diminishes.

At W Cosmetic Surgery®, we offer advanced post-operative care to enhance your healing experience. These include nutritional support, light-based therapies, and Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBO) to help reduce swelling and accelerate recovery. Dr. Wulc and his team will provide personalized aftercare instructions to ensure a smooth recovery and optimal results.
