When we think about plastic surgery, we often think of breast implants or a tummy tuck, but a chin implant can have a tremendous impact in improving our appearance as well. Chin and cheek implants are often referred to together as facial implants, and they can help your face look younger and more balanced.
What Are Facial Implants?
Chin and cheek implants do for your face what breast implants might do for your body—they augment, reconstruct, or rejuvenate the facial shape. Our Lubbock office makes all shapes and sizes of these implants available to ensure the implants provide a balanced and proportional improvement to the face, not a manipulated or unnatural leap toward a false perfection.
Why Would I Get Facial Implants?
Science has shown that we define a face as beautiful when it is balanced and symmetrical. Faces that appear top-heavy due to a large forehead or nose may benefit from a chin implant to achieve greater balance. Facial implants can give an enhanced or stronger looking cheekbone or jawline. If you are losing contour or structure in your face due to aging, facial implants can repair this. And, anyone struggling with natural or injury caused asymmetry or deformities can find confidence through corrections provided by facial implants. Counseling with your board-certified surgeon is necessary for ensuring that you select the right procedure for your goals.
When considering surgery of any kind, it is important to be aware of the risks. Like all surgeries, there is a risk of post-surgical infection following a facial implant. Damage to facial nerves and musculature is possible. And, the structure or location of the implant may alter over time.
If you are looking for a new start this new year, whether it is breast implants or facial implants, give Dr. Jane Rowley a call today. She will spend the time needed to consult with each patient to make sure procedures and expectations are understood. You can then walk into any room with your chin held high in confidence with a chin implant. You are always in good hands at Rowley Plastic Surgery. rowleyplasticsurgery.com

Have you heard of the “Ideal Implant”? It’s a new breast implant used in breast augmentation surgeries that can provide a natural look and feel without the concerns associated with silicone implants.
Silicone and Saline Options
Saline implants are typically known for having less of a natural look and feel than a silicone implant. They are also less expensive than silicone implants. A woman who is looking for larger breasts but wants a smaller incision will consider saline implants. Because of the shape of the implant and consistency of the saline, these implants can have a water balloon feel.
A silicone implant, on the other hand, is closer to a natural breast in appearance and touch. The silicone gel implants are FDA approved, but if ruptured, the implant and all leaked gel must be removed from the body. Unlike saline implants that visibly deflate when there is a leak, the FDA has advised women with silicone gel implants to get an MRI three years after the original surgery and then every other year after that to check for visually-undetectable leaks.
The New Ideal Implant
The Ideal Implant® combines the best of both these worlds by providing a silicone look and feel with the safety of saline. The material in the Ideal Implant® has improved strength, meaning it ruptures less often than other implants and holds its form better than other implants. It also requires a smaller incision for insertion and is easy to remove if needed.
How Does it Work?
A conventional saline implant has no structure, leaving the saline to move freely like a water balloon. The Ideal Implant® is filled with the same saline, but has a layered structure of multiple pockets to give it a natural structure and movement. These layers protect the breast augmentation from wrinkling or collapsing. Find out more about the Ideal Implant® by visiting Dr. Jane Rowley for a no-obligation consultation. Dr. Rowley is the only board-certified surgeon in Lubbock who offers breast augmentation with the Ideal implant® option. Learn more at rowleyplasticsurgery.com

For women in the Lubbock area who are ready to rediscover the body they had before they started having children, there are several different plastic surgery procedures to address stubborn pockets of fat, saggy belly skin, and out-of-shape breasts. A tummy tuck procedure is often paired with procedures for breast enhancements and liposuction. A combination of procedures is commonly referred to as a mommy makeover. But plastic surgery options done in tandem can give any patient dramatic changes in appearance.
What Can a Tummy Tuck Do?
A tummy tuck is meant to remove sagging abdominal skin and tighten lax muscles under that skin. When paired with liposuction or a breast augmentation, Lubbock women can achieve the contoured look they desire with this mommy makeover combo. Instead of providing significant weight-loss results, these procedures are designed to shape the body into a slimmer silhouette.
Popular mommy makeover pairings with a tummy tuck:
Breast Augmentation (augmentation mammoplasty)
Women seeking a breast augmentation can adjust the size and shape of their breasts. The breasts will be fuller and more symmetric.
Breast Lift (mastopexy)
A breast lift can assist Lubbock patients by removing excess breast skin and adjusting breasts into a more youthful position. The nipple is also moved to a more upward position. A breast lift won’t change the size of your breast.
Simultaneous Breast Augmentation and Breast Lift (augmentation mastopexy)
Combining these two procedures leads to shapely, larger, more youthful looking breasts. On the right patient they can give dramatic results to your figure.
Liposuction
Pairing a tummy tuck with liposuction is a very common approach to remove the pooch at the top of the pants that doesn’t seem to budge with diet and exercise. Women in Lubbock can work with their board-certified surgeon to tailor the combination of procedures that meet their unique needs.
