Cheek & Chin Implant
That mirror you count on every day to tell you how you look is lying. It lies because unless you see yourself in profile, you're not seeing what others do when they look at you in three dimensions. You can't see the lack of balance between the upper and lower portions of your face. Many people never even realize that they don't possess much of a chin, or that their cheeks droop, until they happen to catch a side view of themselves in a snap shot, and then they're shocked.
Dr. Taranow can give your face the balance and symmetry that signals strength, health and grace no matter how people happen to see you. He uses a variety of techniques to proportion the face as a sculptor would shape a work of art. He can raise areas that are undefined or weak, such as the chin, give precision to a soft, round jaw line, or mold the cheekbones to better frame your eyes.
Dr. Taranow uses a technique that he helped develop, and which has brought him international acclaim. It's called Organic Facial Augmentation, and it can be used to proportion the face as a sculptor would shape a work of art, using the body's own tissues. This is a distinct advantage over older techniques, because your body will readily take to its own material, resulting in the most permanent and natural augmentation process available. As the procedure heals and settles, the material that Dr. Taranow used to achieve height and shape will caress the underlying structure. So that, in time, even you won't be able to recall where the "old you" became the "new you."
How do cheek and chin augmentation accomplish so much with so little? Achieving beauty and balance in nature is a matter of small moves and a subtle touch, requiring a sure hand, an experienced eye. Dr. Douglas Taranow has devoted his career to bringing beauty to light in just this way.
