Jaw Implants

Jaw implants are a long-lasting way to improve the contours of your face. Your face says a lot about you. It has the power to communicate messages effortlessly without even saying a word. The face gives clues to who we are. The lower portion of the face conveys a lot. Having a well-contoured jawline can be associated with dominance and power in men. It communicates assertiveness, abundance, and attractiveness. Losing weight or injectable fillers can help but they do not provide long-lasting results. 

Rewrite the conversation and change the way you live your life by getting jaw implants. They can offer patients the necessary foundation and volume to make a dramatic difference in their facial appearance. Dr. Sean Younai is at the forefront of facial implants and plastic surgery procedures in the greater Los Angeles area. His artistic hands have made him one of the most sought-after plastic surgeons in Southern California. To see how you can benefit from the precision of a defined jawline, schedule a friendly consultation with Younai Plastic Surgery or call (310) 275-1971.

About

As we age, skin elasticity starts to change and causes the skin to slump. The fat starts to accumulate in the neck, the skin starts to sag, and the jaw muscles begin to weaken. As a result, our jawlines become less defined. Mother nature may not have given us our ideal look, but we can improve our appearance with a jawline augmentation. 

This procedure offers patients long-lasting results and doesn’t require endless exercises and elixirs. An implant brings balance and support to the lower frame of your face and enhances the jawline and enhances the lines of the neck. ^[1] Dr. Younai can beautifully craft a better structure for your jaw that positions the implants along the ridge that runs from the ear to the chin.

Preparation

Before your procedure, we will help you prepare every step of the way. It is advised to quit smoking to avoid complications. Please stop taking aspirin and other blood-thinning medications at least two weeks leading up to surgery. This is to facilitate optimal circulation. Arrange to have a loved one or a good friend drive you to your appointment. If they can, ask them if they can assist you in your recovery period during the first day after surgery. We want to make sure that you are set up to win. Finally, make sure you get a good night’s rest before surgery.

Procedure

Your surgery day is all about you. After we finalized a few items, you will be prepped for your surgery. Once you settle in, we will make sure you are resting comfortably with the appropriate anesthesia. Then, Dr. Younai will gingerly make incisions to facilitate the implant procedure. They can be placed inside the mouth or in other discreet locations. ^[3]

When the incisions are made, the implant is carefully placed in its new home. These implants are made from safe, medical-grade silicone compounds. Once properly placed, Dr. Younai will carefully suture the incision lines closed so that you can begin the healing process.

The entire procedure lasts for around 1-2 hours, and you can go home after your surgery is complete.

Recovery

Just after your surgery, our team will prepare you for a few after-care items. You may experience some discomfort and swelling for a few days. We will prescribe you pain management medication to alleviate your discomfort. You may also apply a cold compress every other 15 minutes. Bandages and dressings will be applied to the lower face area to ensure the integrity of the results. Because of this, your new look may not be completely visible. It is important to keep these bandages and dressings clean.

Since the implant and incisions will make your face sensitive, you will need to adhere to a liquid diet like soups for about 2 days. You can upgrade to gentle, soft foods within 10 days. Also, patients are advised to sleep on their backs and keep their heads elevated to prevent the collection of fluids in the face. You can return to work within a week or two and vigorous activities like working out can be resumed in 4-6 weeks. During this time, make sure that you don’t touch or rub where the new implant was placed so it can heal properly. At the six-month mark, you’ll be fully healed, the swelling will be resolved, and you’ll be able to enjoy your final results.

Strut those supermodel-looking angles and bask in a reinvented look! You will see a noticeable improvement in your facial structure and harmony. You can now enjoy the long-lasting to permanent results of a better-contoured jawline.

We understand some patients may feel plastic surgery may be out of their league. However, financing a procedure is easier than ever before. Younai Plastic Surgery offers plenty of assistance options to make your surgery possible.
