Do these cheek implants look worrisome?

honestly you look fine but what's most important is how you feel. you should definitely have it looked at by your original surgeon or a specialist if it's hurting you. could be migration but being out so far from your procedure it doesn't seem likely it's infected but there still is a slight chance of that.

Who was your surgeon if you don’t mind?

When you said cheek implants I instantly knew it was him. It’s his signature calling card as they say. He almost always recommends it for his FFS patients.

I think you look fantastic and I can't tell that anything's off at all from these pics, but you know your face best. Definitely reach out to your surgeyif you're concerned/unhappy.

Had no idea what I was supposed to see until I read the accompanying text, so I'd think you're fine

I think they look great. And I have been round and round about all of these related questions and concerns with my surgeon over the past 14 or so months.

We landed on "I may notice it, and you may notice it" but does anyone else? I have shown similar photos and had in person comments WAYYY to many times. They all come up with the comments here; they look amazing!

And so do yours.

We are our most critical critic; I get it.

My biggest complaint now is the way it has made talking. The incisions have long healed - you know the ones - but for some reason I can *very much* still feel it - and it makes talking for any period of time feel difficult. Strange. Do you notice that one at all?

Are your affixed somehow to the bone? I'm hoping so - it make the chance of migration pretty close no chance at all.

It's possible one may have migrated. Ultimately, the recommendation is to check with your surgeon.

My dyslexia kicked in while reading the title and ended up missing the word cheeks. So I spent a good minute trying to figure out what implant you were talking about. I had to reread the title cause I though I must have gotten the titles of different posts mixed up. Your cheeks look fine, I couldn't even tell.

I'll preface by saying it is hardly noticeable and you look great, but you would know best, and it certainly seems like your right side could have dropped just by where the ends are comparatively.
