Frequently Asked Questions

What is a chin implant?

As one of the central face structures, the chin is important in setting overall balance to the face and helping provide definition. A small or receded chin can change the appearance of someone’s entire face, and skew perception such as making their nose look too large. 

A chin implant is a silicone type implant that rests directly in front of your native jawbone at the center of your face to help further project your chin forwards

A chin implant is often incorporated into neck lifts, facelifts, and rhinoplasty surgery if the patient does not have a strong projecting chin. The advantages of an implant are permanent alteration of the chin size, customizable shape and size, and reversibility of the procedure.
