Consultation
Our process begins with a consultation with one of our licensed Younique providers. During this meeting, we discuss your concerns, medical history, and goals for surgery. If we determine that you’re a candidate for a paranasal augmentation in Santa Monica, we can schedule your surgery and provide information to prepare you for surgery.

Procedure
During your paranasal augmentation surgery, your Younique provider will provide general anesthesia to enhance comfort and help relieve you of any potential anxiety. Your provider will then make careful incisions either inside the mouth or below your lower eyelid to insert the implants. They will position the implants for the most natural-looking volumizing enhancement.
Your enhancement can address the mid-face concavity that may make your face appear flat or hollow. The small incision may leave minimal scarring afterwards.

Recovery
Similar to cheekbone implants, paranasal implant surgery can fill mid-face features. At Younique, you can experience a technique that can take 30 to 45 minutes and doesn’t require you to stay overnight. You may experience some swelling for a few days following surgery.
After 2 days, you may begin feeling more like yourself. You can take prescribed or over-the-counter medication as directed. It’s also safe to use a cold compress in moderation. After about 10 days, you can return to work. We recommend avoiding heavy exercise and strenuous activity for at least 14 days.

What exactly is paranasal augmentation?
Paranasal mid-face augmentation is a type of facial surgery that requires careful implant placement to combat sunken cheeks, jutting noses, and protruding lips. The procedure can round out your features and prevent a gaunt appearance.
Your Younique surgeon can target a few main regions that make up the mid-face, including the space between your nose, cheeks, and the bottom of your eye sockets. When using implants and other methods to enhance this area, you can offset sunken features caused by aging or genetics. Surgery is quick, permanent, and has minimal side effects.
Who is a good candidate for a paranasal implant in Santa Monica?
A good candidate is anyone in good health, preferably a non-smoker, and who has realistic expectations for results. Some people find themselves attracted to paranasal augmentation if they have a sunken mid-face. While these features are more common in the Eastern Asian population, we can perform a mid-face augmentation on anyone who desires more youthful facial features.
We want to help you be at your best. The providers at Younique Surgery Center and Medical Spa can help make that possible.
