Cheek implant is a safe and effective cosmetic surgery procedure to improve cheek contours and create a more attractive overall facial appearance. During the pre-op consultation, the cheek implant surgeon will explain various aspects of the procedure to the patient.
Some surgeons may like to present cheek implant before and after photographs during the first appointment. This can help to educate the patient about the potential effectiveness of the procedure, and help them make an informed decision.

What are Cheek Implant Before and After Pictures?
Before and after pictures in case of cheek implant cosmetic surgery refer to a set of images pertaining to an earlier patient who has received the same procedure with satisfactory results.
The pictures include images taken before the surgery and after the surgery at a stage when the post-operative bruising and swelling has been fully resolved, incision lines and faded, and full effects of cheek implants can be seen. It can be a few weeks or months when such “after” pictures are taken.
The surgeon will ensure that these photographs are obtained with the patient’s express consent, and presented before new patients in an appropriate manner. The patient’s identity is generally not disclosed with the photos. The only purpose of the surgeon in this exercise is to use the photos as a visual aid to educate new patients about what a cheek implant surgery can or cannot do for them.
Advantages

They would like to ensure whether cheek implant surgery will produce the kind of results they want, and whether the overall facial look will be natural looking.
Some patients may require lower cheek augmentation, while others may need higher cheek enhancement. In some cases, the surgeon may recommend cheek implants in combination with injectable fillers or another surgical procedure such as facelift or blepharoplasty.
