What is Facial Implants?
The facial features of an individual plays an important role in creating an impression on the onlooker. Basically, three things define a facial shape: skin, soft tissues and the facial bones. Any excess or deficiency of one of the three leads to a considerable change in the facial shape. The deficiencies in certain cases can be corrected with implants, which are foreign materials (USFDA approved only and absolutely safe) inserted under the skin and the soft tissues envelope to give fullness in the desired areas.
Facial Implants Procedure
Implants are usually used in the Cheek areas ( for those prominent cheek bones), chin and jaw line (Kareena Kapoor and Brad Pitt look). These are placed through incisions made within the mouth so that there are no visible scars. There are different shapes and sizes of implants. They are also made of different materials. Solid silicone is the safest material for the implant as the risk of infection and other complications are lowest with these implants. Moreover surgery done using Silicone implants is reversible
Benifits Of Facial Implants

The swelling takes a few weeks to disappear completely at which time the implants have fixed in the right location. The results thus obtained is permanent and looks natural.
