from flat to fabulous

Sunken cheeks and a hollowed face can develop from genetics, aging, and other factors.

When a person has a mid-face concavity or a flat-looking facial appearance, the nose and lips may jut out more prominently.

Mid-face paranasal augmentation in Santa Monica can redefine those facial contours, plump sunken cheeks, and restore balance to your facial profile. Surgery can also diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. This short procedure has long-lasting results that enhance facial volume for a fuller, more fabulous appearance!

The Paranasal Implant Process

What to Expect

01

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.
