We have described the most common cosmetic procedures of the face: facelift, rhinoplasty (nose), blepharoplasty (eyelids) and otoplasty (ears), lips enhancement with filling materials and BOTOX ® injections for reduction of wrinkles. In the following information we will review other facial procedures that are not as popular as those previously mentioned, but very useful in selected cases. Mentoplasty (Chin surgery) Mentoplasty modifies the volume and shape of the chin, in order to improve harmony with the rest of the face. This procedure reduces the bony structure of the chin when it is very prominent and/or when a reduction is necessary, or this procedure will increase the chin’s volume by means of a silicone implant.

Malarplasty (Cheek implant)

This term is used to describe the augmentation or general reshaping of the cheeks. In the cheek augmentation procedure, implants are used to change the underlying structure, which affects the overall balance of facial features. Often cheek implants are used together with other facial implants, particularly chin implants, however, they can be used alone.

Cheek augmentation involves placing the implant over the cheekbone through an incision made inside the mouth or through an opening just beneath the lower eyelash.

Bichat Fat Pad

The Bichat's fat pad is of great significance in facial contouring. Resection of major parts of this fat pad results in accentuation of the cheek. On the other hand, hypoplasia or shrinkage of this fat pad can be augmented by means of silicone implants for improved aesthetic results.

Facial Liposculpture

Face liposuction allows definitive elimination of fat deposits of the face, by means of its aspiration with very fine cannulas. These deposits are mainly localized in the neck and cheeks. These cannulas usually do not leave scars, since the incisions have minimal affect.

Types of Anesthesia

All minor face surgeries are made usually in ambulatory clinics, that is to say, without hospitalization. The anesthesia is local with sedation and the patient will be totally relaxed and insensitive to pain.

Expectations

Our goal is to make our patients feel better with their body. When a person is comfortable, they feel safer and more confident with themselves and their environment.

However, it is considered that the expectations are reasonable and the surgeon must consider the necessities of the patient that is always in the context of their physical characteristics and with the surgeon's advice tending to achieve the best result possible.
