Chin Implant is a great choice for a permanent, natural looking solution. It can also be used to lessen the effects of aging. Patients with small chins tend to develop earlier signs of aging around the chin & neck.

Overview

A chin implant, also known as chin augmentation or genioplasty, is a surgical procedure designed to improve the proportions and definition of the chin, ultimately enhancing facial harmony.

What is Chin Implant & Jawline Augmentation

Chin augmentation with implants is a cosmetic procedure that helps strengthen the lower jaw features. Individuals who decide to have this surgery often do so because they feel their chin is too small or doesn’t fit with the natural angles of their face and neck.

Purpose:

  • Facial Balance: The primary goal is to create a more balanced and proportionate facial profile. A weak or receding chin can make other facial features, such as the nose, appear larger.  
  • Jawline Definition: Chin implants can strengthen the jawline, creating a more defined and sculpted appearance.
  • Addressing a "Weak" Chin: It's a solution for individuals with a naturally small or recessed chin.

The Procedure:

Implant Placement:

  • The surgery involves placing a solid implant around the existing chin bone.
  • Implants are typically made of biocompatible materials like silicone.  
  • The surgeon makes a small incision either inside the mouth or underneath the chin.

Frequently asked questions

How long does the surgery take?

This is a difficult question to answer as it depends on how many stages of Mohs are required to clear the tumor. Plan on being here for several hours and if you are finished early it will be a pleasant surprise. Please do not make other important appointments for the day of the surgery.

Am I able to drive myself to and from the surgery?

Yes. Although it is nice to have company on the day of surgery, it is not required. Only local anesthesia is used, so you will not be impaired in any way.

Will I need pain medication following surgery?

We offer all of our patients pain medicine following surgery. Many find that they do not require pain medicine. If you do take pain medicine, you should not drive or do other activities that require mental acuity.

Will I have a scar?

Any time a cut is made in the skin there will be a scar or mark. Our goal is to make this scar as imperceptible as possible. We will continue to work with you, long after your surgery if necessary, to minimize your scarring.

Tips for Making an Informed Decision

Getting a procedure is a tremendous personal investment. However, it is not a decision that should be made lightly or in a hurry. Rushing might influence you to choose the wrong shape or go too big, which may impair you from running, jumping, or performing certain physical activities with ease. Go too small, and you may feel underwhelmed with your new look.

  • Compare notes or seek others’ opinions It is a good idea to speak with your friends, family, or partner about choosing the correct breast implant for your body and lifestyle. Be open to other people’s opinions and suggestions, especially if they have your best interests at heart.
  • Knowledge is power From a plastic surgeon’s point of view, we recommend learning as much about the specific shapes and sizes, surgery incisions, and types of breast implants on the market. Knowing your reasons also play a role in your decision making.
  • Know your budget Consider the cost of your preferred implant. For example, teardrop-shaped implants are more expensive since they require a textured surface to prevent rotation and a trained surgeon to place them.
  • Seek professional advice It is important to understand that no two breast augmentations are alike. Just because saline implants looked beautiful on your best friend does not mean that the same implant will be the right choice for you. This is why plastic surgeons always recommend face-to-face consultations.
