Changing the stub to be more accurate. Initially it read that prominent cheekbones are a universal sign of beauty-that is only true in western cultures. I changed it and gave opposite example, in Korea. Te next change:"People who want more prominent cheekbones can have an implant placed to rest on top of their cheekbones". The cheekbone is the zygoma and the phrase "on top", though sounding so innocuous has a lot of technical considerations. I am trying to make that clear. Nancy Sculerati MD 09:35, 3 March 2007 (CST)
