Facial Implant Surgery
in Fort Lauderdale

with Dr. Thomassen

Enhance Your Appearance with Chin, Jaw, and Cheek Implants

The structure of your face is shaped by three key components: skin, soft tissues, and underlying facial bones. When these elements are out of balance, features such as a recessed chin, undefined jawline, or flattened cheeks can create disharmony in your appearance. These concerns can also affect your self-image and confidence.

At Thomassen Plastic Surgery in Fort Lauderdale, Dr. John Thomassen offers facial implant surgery to bring balance, projection, and definition to your features. By enhancing skeletal structure, facial implants create natural-looking contours and a more youthful, proportionate appearance.

Benefits of Facial Implants

Facial implants can:

  • Improve chin projection and balance your profile

  • Define the jawline for a stronger, more structured look

  • Restore volume and lift to the cheeks

  • Create symmetry and harmony in overall facial proportions

  • Enhance long-term confidence and self-image

  • Adults whose facial growth is complete (typically late adolescence)

  • Individuals with weak chins, recessed jaws, or flattened cheeks
