Clarifying well the expectations of the intervention before taking no decision. It is possible that after the exposition of the surgeon the expectation does not coincide and for it he is a better realistic being and to accept the targets before continuing with this type of interventions.

If the implant is realized in the cheekbones (malares) an incision is done inside the top lip or in the rim of the eyelashes of low eyelid.
Across this one it opens a pocket to itself and the implant gets in the cheekbone then to close the access with small points.

This intervention can last less than 1 hour.
