Facial Contouring A variety of new and innovative surgical procedures can be done to improve facial contours. Facial implants can be used for cheek, chin and nasal contour changes with minimally noticeable or even hidden incisions. Using a new technique called microfat grafting, facial contours can be improved for laugh lines, lip enhancement, contour defects from trauma or infection, and hollow, deep set eyes. Injectible materials such as dermologen or collogen can also be used to improve fine lines, wrinkles and facial contours. Most procedures are performed in the office under local anesthesia and I.V. sedation and take approximately one to three hours to complete.
Most patients can return to work within two to five days.
