Will Paranasal Implants Normalize The Central Part Of My Face?

Q: Dr. Eppley, I’m interested in paranasal implants. My goal is to normalize the central part of my face having an aesthetic outcome.

A:Thank you for sending your pictures. I would need to know exactly what you are hoping that paranasal implants can improve or resolve. When one says normalize the central part of my face that suggests to me to provide some additional projection around the lower central mid face which paranasal implants can certainly do. If the goal is to sit softener significantly reduce the presence of the nasolabial folds in that regard I would not be as optimistic in terms of the effects.

That being said, provided the primary goal is increased  projection for undergoing the procedure,  is whether one should use standard or custom implants. That decision requires a more in-depth conversation.
