Facial implants in most cases are considered elective or "cosmetic" surgery, which means you'll probably have to pay for it yourself. Total costs vary in different regions of the country, but average $1,000 to $2,000 for a chin implant and $1,500 to $3,000 for cheek implants.
The American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS), reports the following state-by-state averages of fees charged by plastic surgeons in 1998 for cheek implant surgery: California, $2,548; New York, $3,333; Florida, $1,761; Texas, $2,331. For chin implant surgery: California, $2,012; New York, $2,325; Florida, $1,146; Texas, $1,744.
