Body Contouring & Facial Implants
At North Florida Plastic Surgery & Aesthetics, we proudly offer Implantech® body and facial silicone implants to help patients achieve balanced, natural-looking enhancements in areas that may be resistant to diet, exercise, or aging changes. Whether you’re seeking more defined facial features or a stronger, more sculpted physique, Dr. David Mateo uses state-of-the-art implant technology to deliver safe, lasting results.
What Are Body Contouring & Facial Implants?
Body contouring and facial implants are made of soft, medical-grade silicone designed to mimic the look and feel of natural tissue. Unlike fillers or fat transfer, implants provide a stable, long-lasting solution for patients who want more dramatic contouring or who may not be candidates for fat grafting.
At our Gainesville practice, we exclusively use Implantech silicone implants, a trusted leader in implant technology. Implantech is known for its high-quality, customizable implants that are designed to provide both durability and natural-looking results.
Types of Implants We Offer
We offer a variety of body and facial implant options, tailored to each patient’s anatomy and goals:
Butt Implants (Gluteal Implants) in Gainesville, FL
Buttock implants enhance the size, shape, and projection of the buttocks using solid silicone implants. This is an excellent option for patients who want more dramatic curves but do not have enough body fat for a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL). Butt implants are placed through discreet incisions, typically within the natural crease of the buttocks, to create a fuller, more balanced contour.
Cheek Implants in Gainesville, FL
Cheek implants restore youthful volume to the midface and improve facial balance. Whether due to aging, genetics, or weight loss, hollow cheeks can make the face appear tired or flat. Cheek implants provide lasting definition and a natural-looking lift to the midface, helping patients achieve a refreshed, contoured appearance.
Chin Implants in Gainesville, FL
Chin implants enhance a weak or recessed chin and create harmony between the lower face and profile. By adding projection and definition, chin implants can improve facial proportions and complement procedures such as rhinoplasty or neck contouring. This straightforward procedure delivers long-lasting results for patients seeking a stronger jawline and balanced profile.
Pectoral (Pec) Implants in Gainesville, FL
Pectoral implants add definition and fullness to the chest for men who want a more muscular, sculpted appearance. Even with consistent exercise, some men struggle to achieve the desired chest contour due to genetics or body type. Pec implants are placed beneath the pectoral muscle to create natural-looking enhancement and a more athletic upper body.
Calf Implants in Gainesville, FL
Calf implants improve lower leg shape, symmetry, and muscular definition. They are ideal for patients with naturally thin calves, congenital imbalances, or difficulty building calf muscle despite exercise. By enhancing both the inner and outer calf, implants create a more proportional, athletic leg contour.
Who Is a Candidate for Body Contouring or Facial Implants?
You may be a candidate for silicone implants if you:
- Desire more definition in the face, chest, buttocks, or calves
- Do not have enough fat for a transfer procedure (such as fat grafting)
- Are in good health and at a stable weight
- Have realistic expectations about surgery and results
During your consultation, Dr. Mateo will review your medical history, evaluate your anatomy, and create a personalized surgical plan based on your goals.
The Procedure: What to Expect
- Anesthesia: These procedures are performed under anesthesia for patient comfort.
- Incisions: Small, strategically placed incisions are made to insert the implant. Incision placement varies depending on the implant type (for example, under the chin for chin implants, within the natural crease of the buttock for gluteal implants).
- Implant Placement: The implant is carefully positioned to achieve symmetry and a natural contour.
- Sutures & Dressings: Incisions are closed with dissolvable sutures, and dressings or compression garments may be used to support healing.
Recovery After Body or Facial Implants
Recovery depends on the type of implant and areas treated. In general:
- Initial recovery: Swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort are normal for the first 1–2 weeks.
- Activity: Most patients can return to light activity within 7–10 days, but strenuous exercise should be avoided for 4–6 weeks.
- Final results: Implants settle into place over the course of several months as swelling subsides, revealing the final contour.
Our team provides detailed post-operative instructions and follow-up care to support your recovery.
Results & Longevity
Facial implants are designed to be long-lasting. Unlike fillers or fat transfer, silicone implants maintain their shape and volume indefinitely and do not fluctuate based on your body weight. With proper care and a healthy lifestyle, many patients enjoy their results for decades.
