Good cheekbones greatly enhance facial harmony and attractiveness. Patients with flat or hollow cheekbones can see dramatic results with cheek implant surgery. The goal of Houston plastic surgeons Dr. Russell Kridel and Dr. Sean Delaney is for you to achieve natural results tailored specifically to you, and not to just add prominent cheekbones.
What Sets Us Apart
As board-certified facial plastic surgeons, Dr. Russell Kridel and Dr. Sean Delaney focus exclusively on aesthetic surgery for the face, head, and neck, and have won numerous awards from peers and patients for their surgical expertise and quality patient care. Patients, including family members, come from Houston and throughout the country for surgery because of their recognized skills and experience in this area.
Surgical Technique
Cheek augmentation surgery takes about an hour. Dr. Kridel and Dr. Delaney utilize a special medical-grade implant to restore a youthful contour to the cheeks. These come in a variety of shapes and sizes, easily tailored for each patient. To insert the implant, Dr. Kridel and Dr. Delaney will make an incision inside the mouth, between the upper gums and cheek. The soft cheek tissue is elevated, and a pocket is created over the cheekbone. Then, they slide the implant through the incision and stitch it in place.

During/After Surgery
Cheek augmentation is an outpatient procedure that is performed under "twilight" iv sedation in our AAAHC-accredited facility or under general anesthesia at a nearby accredited out-patient surgical facility. Cheek implantation can also be performed in conjunction with other procedures such as Facelift and Necklift. There will be swelling and some numbness, but bruising is uncommon. The swelling subsides gradually and your new look settles in over a period of a few months. Most patients can return to work within a week. However, strenuous exercise should be avoided for a few weeks.
