Frequently Asked Questions
What is Chin Augmentation?
Chin Augmentation is a cosmetic surgical procedure that increases the projection and definition of the chin. It is performed to correct a receding chin, improve facial symmetry, and enhance the overall balance of your facial features, often by placing a small, biocompatible implant or using fat transfer.
What is the recovery process like after Chin Augmentation?
Patients can expect some swelling, bruising, and discomfort in the chin and jaw area. A compression garment may be worn to help reduce swelling. Most initial swelling subsides within 1-2 weeks, but full resolution can take a few months. Patients can usually return to light activities within a few days, and a soft diet may be recommended initially.
How is Chin Augmentation performed?
Chin Augmentation can be performed using different techniques. Often, a small incision is made either inside the mouth (along the lower lip) or discreetly under the chin. A customized implant, usually made of solid silicone, is then carefully placed around the existing chin bone. Alternatively, fat harvested from another part of your body can be transferred to augment the chin. The incision is then meticulously closed.
Who is a good candidate for Chin Augmentation in Los Angeles?
You may be a good candidate for Chin Augmentation if you have a weak or receding chin that appears disproportionate to your other facial features, or if you desire a stronger, more defined jawline and improved facial profile. Ideal candidates are in good overall health, have realistic expectations, and seek a permanent solution. A personalized consultation at CK Plastic Surgery in Los Angeles will help determine if this procedure is right for you.
