What Are Cheek Implants?
Cheek implants are solid, medical-grade devices surgically placed over or along the cheekbones to enhance facial structure. Most cheek implants are either silicone or porous polyethylene, both materials that provide a permanent, safe solution for asymmetrical or poorly defined cheeks.
Cheek implants come in several shapes to address different aesthetic concerns. Dr. Brys will evaluate your facial structure and recommend the implant placement that best complements your natural anatomy.
- Submalar: Placed above the cheekbone to improve a sunken or hollow midface
- Malar: Placed directly over the cheekbone to create a more angular, sculpted definition
- Combination: Blend malar and submalar enhancement for lift and volume
Many of today’s patients begin their quest for improved facial proportions with injectable dermal fillers. While these products add temporary volume with gel-based formulations, cheek implants provide lasting definition, fullness, and lift without ongoing maintenance. During your consultation, Dr. Brys will help you determine whether fillers or implants are a better match for your goals, anatomy, and long‑term preferences.
Who Is a Good Candidate for Cheek Implant Surgery?
Cheek implants are an excellent option for many patients seeking long-lasting facial contouring. You may be a good candidate if you are in good physical health, do not smoke or can quit before surgery, and have realistic expectations about what cheek implants can achieve.
While this procedure is ideal for people who want permanent enhancement for naturally flat cheeks, noticeable asymmetry, or age-related volume loss, there are also situations where Dr. Brys may not recommend cheek implants. Patients with naturally thin skin, diabetes, blood or bone disorders, or conditions that affect hearing may not be ideal candidates. Additionally, because smoking interferes with healing, you may need to reconsider surgery if you’re not willing to quit all nicotine-containing products, including vape pens.
During your consultation, Dr. Brys will thoroughly review your medical history, evaluate your facial anatomy, and discuss your aesthetic goals to determine whether cheek implants are the appropriate fit for you. Her thoughtful, individualized approach ensures every recommendation supports your safety and long-term satisfaction with your results.

What Can You Expect From Cheek Implant Surgery?
Your cheek implant surgery will take place while you are under general anesthesia. Once you are comfortably asleep, Dr. Brys will make small, well-concealed incisions and carefully position the implants to achieve your desired contour. Then, she’ll close the incisions with dissolvable sutures.
Recovery from cheek implant surgery is generally smooth and manageable. You can expect to experience mild soreness, tightness, and swelling for several days as your tissues adjust to their new contour. Dr. Brys will provide detailed instructions for caring for your incisions, which may include using a specific mouth rinse, following a temporary liquid or soft-food diet, keeping your head elevated (including overnight), and refraining from strenuous activity for several weeks. Many patients feel well enough to return to work within about a week, with swelling continuing to improve over the following weeks.
