Do you feel like you could say “so long!” to your existing facial structure?
Does your face seem oblong or shapeless? Cheek implants can rejuvenate the facial structure by adding volume where it is considered optimally attractive. Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. John A. Kotis offers this effective procedure to residents of Chicago, Arlington Heights and surrounding Illinois communities.
What are Cheek Implants?
Cheek implants refer to a facial plastic surgery procedure in which an implant, shaped according to existing face structure, is placed underneath the skin of the cheek to add volume to the cheek area. Cheek implants can result in a fuller face or higher cheekbones.

What Are the Benefits of Cheek Implants?
It’s no secret that high cheekbones are considered a sign of beauty. Cheekbones enhance the facial profile by making it look youthful, striking and elegant. Having undefined cheeks can result in appearing tired, bloated or overweight and aged.
Cheek implants help correct the appearance of undefined cheeks by enhancing the volume in the upper cheek area. Depending on the desired results, the implants can be shaped and placed differently for each individual.
Who is a Candidate for Cheek Implants?
If you are unhappy with the profile of your face or feel you look different due to aging, cheek implants are an effective procedure to consider. Having fuller cheeks can help most people look younger, happier and more balanced. Because the procedure has minimal side effects, most individuals who would like to enhance the cheek area are strong candidates for the procedure.
The Cheek Implant Procedure
To create more prominent cheekbones, cheek implants are inserted through small incisions. Dr. Kotis determines the placement of these incisions and the implant according to patient’s facial profile. Patients may desire different results with cheek implants. Dr. Kotis can improve shallow areas, lift the cheek or create a rounder profile.
What is the Expected Recovery Period for Cheek Implants?
Recovery for cheek implants is typically very minimal as Dr. Kotis is an expert in facial plastic surgery. Typically, patients will need to wear bandages, and any discomfort can be managed with medication prescribed by our doctor, as needed. Dr. Kotis will talk with you about how to prepare for the procedure and what to expect during recovery.
