Suitable candidates for a cheekbone implant
If you seek a more prominent cheekbone and injectables of lipofilling might not be sufficient, then you are probably a suitable candidate for a cheekbone implant.
Cheekbone Implant
Sometimes a more pronounced or accentuated cheekbone can only be achieved by inserting an implant, which will lift the cheekbone and give you the desired result.

Cheekbone implant procedure
A cheekbone implant can be inserted under a local anaesthetic, but the patient often chooses intravenous sedation. The procedure lasts between one and two hours while you are sedated. A general anaesthetic is not necessary. The surgeon implants the cheekbone prosthesis (implant) through the inside of the eye or the inside of the mouth so that there is no trace of any scar on the outside of the face.
What to expect?
The final results are only visible a few weeks after treatment, when the swelling and bruising have disappeared. After cheekbone augmentation with implants there is no visible scar. The results of cheekbone augmentation with implants is permanent. The cheekbone prosthesis can also be easily removed if necessary.
Step by StepStep by Step
Consultation
During your consultation, you will meet the surgeon who will perform your surgery. The consultation will start with you expressing your desired result.
Your surgeon will then perform a medical examination to assess whether you are a suitable candidate.
During your consultation you can expect:
- Honest and expert advice
- Unambiguous information
- Full price transparency
Surgery
Depending on the type of treatment, your surgery will be performed under intravenous sleep sedation, local or general anaesthesia. More information about all types of anesthesia can be found on this page.
Your anaesthetist will insert a needle into your arm through which the medication will be injected. It takes about 10 seconds to take effect.
After surgery, incisions are closed with dissoluble sutures and necessary plasters and bandages are applied. When general anaesthesia or intravenous sleep sedation is applied, the anaesthetist will start the wake up process and you will be transferred to the recovery area where you will be closely monitored.
Immediate Recovery
After surgery, you will be taken to the recovery area where you will be closely monitored by our medical staff. If the surgery took place under general anaesthesia or intravenous sleep sedation, your bodily functions will routinely be monitored whilst you start to awake.
Once you are fully conscious, you will be taken to your room where you can continue resting until you feel fit to go home.
Some surgeries require patients to stay overnight.
Aftercare & Recovery
For optimal healing and aesthetic outcome, it is important to strictly follow your surgeon’s post-operative guidelines. These guidelines may vary from patient to patient.
All stitches are dissoluble so you don't need to visit your family doctor or a nurse to remove them. Depending on the type of surgery you might be expected to return for a follow-up consultation. You will be informed accordingly by our team members.
We are there to support you day and night. Our doctors and staff will advise and assist you until you are fully recovered.
