Face Procedures
Facial Implants in Bellevue, WA
Facial implants in Bellevue add definition to the chin, cheeks, or jaw for stronger, balanced features.
Quick answer
Facial implants add permanent, structural definition to the chin, cheeks, or jawline using precisely shaped implants. They restore or enhance the underlying framework of the face for stronger, more balanced features.
Sometimes the issue isn’t skin or fat — it’s the underlying bone structure. Facial implants build up areas that are naturally recessed or have lost volume with age: a stronger chin, higher cheekbones, or a more defined jawline. Dr. Day selects and shapes implants to integrate naturally with your features.
Implants are often combined with other procedures — a chin implant with rhinoplasty, or cheek and jaw implants as part of facial masculinization.
