This technique allows patients to improve specific aesthetic features, such as the shape of the jaw corners, the projection of the cheekbones and other facial features, achieving a more harmonious and, for example, more youthful appearance.
Aesthetics play a vital role in the self-confidence and general well-being of individuals. Alloplastic implants provide a solution for patients who are dissatisfied with certain facial features or want to restore the youthful appearance of their face.
The process begins with a comprehensive evaluation of facial proportions, aesthetic features and the patient’s specific needs. Using advanced 3D imaging technologies, a detailed image of the facial anatomy is obtained, allowing the treatment team to determine the best approach to achieve the desired aesthetic results.
Based on this evaluation, alloplastic implants can be designed specifically for each patient’s anatomy and needs. These implants are manufactured from biocompatible materials such as PEEK or medical titanium that can be safely implanted in the face without risk of rejection. It is also possible to find out together if there is an existing series product, which is not custom-made but fits the patient as well as possible. Series products are generally a bit cheaper than patient-specific products.
Example of a digitally designed chin implant specific to this person. The design follows the shape of the chin and reshapes the chin.
During surgery, implants are carefully placed at strategic pre-planned locations on the face to achieve the desired aesthetic improvements. This may include enlarging the jaw angles, improving the projection of the cheekbones, defining the chin and other areas to create a more symmetrical, youthful and balanced facial profile.
The use of 3D-planned alloplastic implants offers a number of advantages, including improved precision, customisation and predictability of results. By performing virtual planning prior to surgery, surgeons can accurately position implants and visualise aesthetic improvements before the procedure takes place.
