Facial Trauma
Traumatic injury to the soft tissue and bones of the face can have severe psychological and physical repercussions. The victim of vehicle accident, domestic violence or other type of injury may be left with an indelible imprint of the incident. Our surgeons, Dr. Cone and Dr. Langevin’s goal as with all facial reconstructive surgeons, is to return the soft tissue and bony fractures as close to their pre-injury state as possible and return the patient to their normal daily life as quickly as possible.
In order to determine the best surgical treatment plan, we recommend coming into our Austin, TX practice for a consultation.

Frequently Asked Questions
A facial implant is a procedure in which synthetic materials, such as silicone, are used to provide cosmetic definition to the face, and typically performed on a patient’s chin, cheeks, and/or jaw. These implants are crafted to the patient’s needs, although alternatives can include injectable fillers. A facial implant is designed to add body, contour, and structure to the face for aesthetic enhancement.
- Patients who would like to enhance their features

- Patients with unrealistic expectations for their procedure.
The intended result for this procedure is to enhance an individual’s facial features and create a balanced appearance on their face.
- The recovery phase for facial implants varies from patient to patient. Most patients can return to work or play in 1-2 weeks. Further healing changes occur for 6-12 weeks.
- Changes are noticeable almost immediately, however the final result will be covered by the initial stages of swelling and bruising.
