Cheek
Implants:
Dubbed the
"face lift of the 90's," cheek implants have caught on
and undoubtedly are here to stay right on through the new
millennium. Said to restore the youthful lift to the face, the
procedure is a favorite of patients but not necessarily of plastic
surgeons. Because the surgeon goes in through the mouth in order
to place the implants properly, the risk of infection is higher.
The mouth houses more bacteria than almost any other part of the
body. Another potential complication is post-surgical movement of
the implants causing a lop-sided look.
