Can you remove cheek implants and what are some things to think about? Will my cheek drop?

Can you remove cheek implants and what are some things to think about? Will my cheek drop? by Dr. Philip Young of Bellevue Seattle Washington: You can remove them and then carry out fat injections or put smaller ones in. Sometimes when you remove large cheek  implants you can get contracture that will cause your cheek to ball up. This phenomenon occurs in chin implants as well. The other alternative is to take out the implants and plan on fat injections to restore some of this volume. This can be done as early as one month. Although, I have done it as early as 2 weeks. Taking out cheek implants can make your cheek drop with the decrease in volume to avoid this you can replace the volume with another cheek implant. But in this case you can carry fat injections to avoid the dropping from the loss of volume.  A facelift or midface lift is another way of removing the extra tissue. But volume replacement is the most natural way to rejuvenate the face in this area.
