What are Cheek Implants?
Cheek implants are medical-grade implants designed to enhance the structure, contour, and projection of the midface. Placed over the cheekbones, they add definition and restore volume for patients who want stronger facial balance or age-related volume loss corrected. The cheek implant procedure is one of our many facial plastic surgery services we offer.
Who is a Good Candidate?
You may be a candidate for cheek implants if you:
-
Have naturally flat or under-projected cheekbones
-
Have lost midface volume due to aging
-
Want more permanent results than fillers provide
-
Desire stronger facial definition or contour
During your consultation, Dr. Undavia will evaluate facial proportions, skin quality, and overall aesthetic goals to determine the ideal implant size and placement.

Benefits of Cheek Implants
Implant Surgery
During the cheek implant procedure, your NJ ENT surgeon will make an incision either inside the mouth and insert the implant, which is typically made of silicone or another biocompatible material. The procedure is minimally invasive and are typically placed under general anesthesia, and on an outpatient basis.
Cheek Implants Procedure Recovery
Recovery from cheek implant surgery typically takes between one and two weeks, during which time patients may experience some swelling, bruising, and discomfort. Pain medication can be prescribed to manage any discomfort during the recovery period. Patients will need to avoid any strenuous activity or exercise for several weeks following the surgery to allow for proper healing.
