Our Achievements
Chin Augmentation
Chin augmentation is a cosmetic surgery procedure that can help individuals with recessed chins achieve their facial profile goals. During the surgical procedure, one of our board-certified facial plastic surgeons will make a small incision in the chin area and place an implant over the chin bone for a permanent solution. The implants are designed to be stable, durable, and provide natural-looking results. With chin augmentation, patients can enjoy enhanced aesthetic appeal and improved confidence. Chin enhancement is an excellent option for those looking to accomplish their cosmetic goals without any major changes to their face.
This procedure is known for its relatively quick recovery time, and patients can typically resume their regular activities within a short period. Chin augmentation offers a subtle yet impactful transformation, allowing individuals to harmonize their facial features and achieve a more balanced and confident appearance. If you’re considering chin augmentation to enhance your facial profile, consult with a board-certified facial plastic surgeon to discuss your options and ensure the procedure aligns with your cosmetic objectives. Your journey to a more confident and aesthetically pleasing you begins with a consultation.
Chin Augmentation Ideal Candidate Consultation
The ideal candidate for chin augmentation may consult with Dr. Agarwal, Dr. Maloney, or Dr. Holmes. During the consultation, your surgeon will discuss your medical history and evaluate the soft tissues of your face to determine if you are an ideal candidate for chin augmentation. He may also suggest additional procedures such as jawline definition or fat reduction surgery to enhance your youthful appearance. With chin augmentation, patients can enjoy improved harmony between their facial features, enhanced aesthetics, and improved confidence.
Chin Augmentation Preparation
Before undergoing chin augmentation, patients should prepare for the procedure. During their initial consultation, Dr. Agarwal, Dr. Maloney, or Dr. Holmes will provide detailed pre- and post-operative instructions that they should follow. Depending on the specifics of the surgery, they may suggest that patients adjust their diet or refrain from taking certain medications. Additionally, individuals must stop smoking at least two weeks prior to their procedure and should arrange for someone to drive them home after the surgery. It is important for patients to follow all pre-operative and post-operative instructions closely to ensure a successful procedure.

How are Chin Implants done?
Chin augmentation surgery is a surprisingly simple procedure. First, the surgeon administers local anesthesia with IV sedation.
Once the anesthesia is working, the surgeon will make a small incision. Usually, this is placed under the chin in a natural crease. Any scarring will be discreet and difficult to see.
The surgeon then makes a space for the implant, orients it, and secures it over the existing chin structure. Once the implant is secure, the surgeon closes the incision. The entire process usually takes about an hour.

Recovery Time After a Chin Augmentation
The recovery time after a chin augmentation procedure differs from patient to patient, however, most patients can expect to resume light activities within a few days and more strenuous activity after two weeks. After chin implant surgery, patients should avoid extreme movements of the chin area in order to allow proper healing. Patients should also be aware that some soreness and swelling are normal for several weeks following the implant procedure and that their final results will become visible after this period of time.
