Cheek Implant (Malar Augmentation)

Throughout the ages, many cultures, including our modern western civilization, have considered prominent or high cheekbones a sign of physical beauty. Until recently, the only way to create an illusion of high cheekbones was through the skillful application of cosmetics.  However, today, due to modern technology, there is a remarkable procedure, malar augmentation or cheek implant, that can give women the high cheekbones they desire.

This surgery can give definition to a face that has a flat contour or undefined definition. While the best candidate for malar augmentation has a long, narrow face or round face with flat cheeks, it can also benefit those with asymmetries or congenital defects. This surgery can be performed in conjunction with other facial surgeries.
