Frequently Asked Questions
What are the types of facial implants?
1. Chin implants: Chin implants can be used to alter the size and projection of a chin that appears out of proportion with the rest of the face. A small or recessed chin can also be enhanced significantly with chin implant surgery, creating a more pronounced look, and adding definition to the face as a whole.
2. Jaw implants: Jaw implants widen the lower part of the face, resulting in a more defined appearance. A jawline that is not well defined and distinct can affect the balance and definition of the face—issues that can be corrected permanently with jaw implants.
3. Cheek implants: The projection of the cheekbones is increased with cheek implants, adding depth to areas that are recessed or flat in appearance. Cheek implant surgery can be performed to dramatically improve facial definition and balance, while drawing attention to its most attractive features.
How does a Lucere Facial Implant work?
Every Lucere Facial Implant begins with an extensive consultation. During your consultation, our team of surgeons will outline the benefits and potential risks associated with cosmetic surgery. We will also assess your eligibility for Lucere Facial Implant surgery, based on your current state of health and any prescription medication you are taking.
Your surgeon will examine your face and its underlying structure, paying particularly close attention to your jawline, your cheekbones, your chin and other prominent features like your mouth and eyes. This will help your surgeon establish the extent to which your objectives can be met using jaw implants, cheek implants, chin implants, or any combination of implants.
Under general anesthetic, your surgeon will make precise incisions carefully in discrete areas of the face, in order to minimize residual scarring. The team will then adjust the tissues beneath the skin to create a pocket for the implant, which will be inserted carefully before being sutured in place. While most facial implant procedures take around two hours to complete, more complex facial surgery can take up to 10 hours.
The initial recovery and healing process takes around a week, after which you will return to our clinic for your sutures to be removed.
Can I achieve the same results with fillers?
Facial fillers can be great as a temporary quick fix, but cannot deliver the same kinds of results as a Lucere Facial Implant. Injectables quickly and effectively correct minor issues with skin sagging, evenness and fullness, but the effects are strictly temporary in nature.
With a Lucere Facial Implant, you can expect a much more dramatic and long-lasting result. If unsure which is the best option for you, book your consultation with our team today.
Is the Lucere Facial Implant painful?
During the procedure, you will be under general anesthesia, which ensures you feel minimal pain. Following the procedure, you may experience bruising and swelling. Additionally, you might feel some pain and discomfort. Typically, these symptoms should subside within one to two weeks.
Meanwhile, your surgical team will provide advice on pain relief. This advice forms a part of your comprehensive aftercare guidelines.
Can I combine a Lucere Facial Implant with other procedures?
Yes, you can combine your Lucere Facial Implant with a wide array of other treatments. These include surgical and non-surgical options. For instance, you might consider a Lucere Neck Lift, Fat Grafting, Fillers, or Anti-Wrinkle Treatments. Additionally, a range of precision Laser Treatments is available to enhance skin quality.
Moreover, our expert team specializes in crafting comprehensive treatment plans. These plans often combine various procedures and treatments. The aim is to address different aesthetic concerns effectively and achieve the desired results. Therefore, it’s important to consult with your surgical team. They can help determine the most suitable procedures and treatments to fulfill your goals.
How do I know I am the right candidate for a Lucere Facial Implant?
In a personalized consultation with our surgical team, we will assess various factors. These include your overall health, facial structure, and aesthetic goals. Consequently, this assessment helps us determine the suitability of the procedure for you. Our primary goal is to craft individualized surgical plans. We aim to align these plans with your unique needs, ensuring both safety and a successful outcome.
Are there scars after a Lucere Facial Implant?
The implants are inserted through small incisions in discreet areas of the face. This is performed with pinpoint precision to minimize scarring. Over the weeks and months that follow the procedure, the scars will gradually fade, becoming virtually undetectable.
How much does Lucere Facial Implant surgery cost?
The price of your procedure will vary in accordance with your unique requirements.
