The well-defined prominent high cheekbone is classically a sign of beauty in Western culture. Based on discussions with (1) representatives of Heyer-Schulte, Goleta, Calif, a leading manufacturer of malar implants regarding the demand for these implants, (2) other facial plastic surgeons, and (3) patients who are aware and request this procedure compared with other procedures in my practice, malar implants, available for the past few years, while effective, have not received universal acceptance and usage. The design limitations of the available implants and the bony resorption under the implant similar to what has been described in mentoplasty are discussed, as well as the long-term results using the standard implants, including photographic and radiographic findings. A modification in the shape of the malar implant and its advantages also will be discussed.
轮廓分明且突出的高颧骨在西方文化中向来是美的象征。基于与（1）加利福尼亚州戈利塔市Heyer-Schulte公司（一家主要的颧骨植入物制造商）的代表就这些植入物的需求进行的讨论，（2）其他面部整形外科医生，以及（3）与我诊所中的其他手术相比，了解并要求进行此手术的患者，过去几年中可用的颧骨植入物虽然有效，但尚未得到广泛接受和使用。文中讨论了现有植入物的设计局限性以及与颏成形术中所描述的类似的植入物下方的骨质吸收情况，还讨论了使用标准植入物的长期效果，包括照片和影像学检查结果。此外，还将讨论颧骨植入物形状的改进及其优势。
