    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Malar implants enhance cheekbone prominence but face limited adoption due to design flaws and bone resorption. Modifications may improve long-term results and patient satisfaction.

    Area of Science:

    • Plastic Surgery
    • Aesthetic Medicine

    Background:

    • Prominent high cheekbones are a Western beauty ideal.
    • Malar implants are available to augment cheekbones.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • Evaluate the demand, effectiveness, and limitations of current malar implants.
    • Discuss long-term results and potential design modifications.

    Main Methods:

    • Discussions with implant manufacturers, surgeons, and patients.
    • Analysis of long-term photographic and radiographic findings.

    Main Results:

    • Malar implants are effective but not universally adopted.
    • Design limitations and bony resorption under implants are noted.
    • Long-term results with standard implants are presented.

    Conclusions:

    • Current malar implant designs have limitations affecting widespread use.
    • Further modifications may enhance implant performance and patient outcomes.
