Facial Augumentation

Isolated facial augmentation or contouring may be required to correct facial asymmetries or to augment certain areas of the face. The most common areas being the cheek prominences, the chin and the jaw.

Sometimes there may be isolated facial deformities which need correction by materials like bone or for soft tissue in the form of fat or dermafat grafts. Artificial materials like MEDPOR or SILICONE are used as implants to correct specific deficiencies.

The most common augmentations done are, for the hollowness of the cheeks where fat grafting can be done, to make the chin more prominent and for nose augmentation, where usually implants are used.
