Chin Augmentation

Chin augmentation, also known as genioplasty or mentoplasty, is a cosmetic surgical procedure designed to enhance the size and shape of the chin. This procedure helps to achieve a balanced and harmonious facial profile by improving the contours of the chin and jawline. It can significantly enhance facial symmetry and boost overall confidence.

How does a chin augmentation work?

Chin augmentation involves the placement of a biocompatible implant around the existing chin bone to create a more pronounced and defined chin. The procedure begins with a small incision, typically made either inside the mouth or under the chin to minimize visible scarring. The implant is then carefully positioned and secured in place, and the incision is closed with sutures. The result is a natural-looking enhancement that complements the patient’s facial features.

Ideal Candidates:

Ideal candidates for chin augmentation are individuals who are unhappy with the size or shape of their chin, feeling it is too small or lacks definition. This procedure is suitable for those seeking to improve facial balance and enhance the overall appearance of their profile. Candidates should be in good overall health, non-smokers, and have realistic expectations about the results.

What to expect after the procedure:

After chin augmentation, patients may experience swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort, which typically subside within a few weeks. Most patients can return to their normal activities within one to two weeks, although strenuous activities should be avoided for several weeks. The results of chin augmentation are long-lasting, providing a more balanced and attractive facial profile.
