A: Evaluating Chin Implant 2 Weeks after Placement

It is impossible to answer your questions 2 weeks after surgery. Normal temporary post-op swelling can cause everything that disturbs you.

What Can I Expect For My Profile From Chin Surgery Vs Rhinoplasty? (photo) Hi. My jaw points down and my chin is week. I would like my jaw to appear more squared. My bite/teeth are excellent, and I don't want to do anything to disturb that. I've thought about chin implants, but I worry that it may accentuate the downward angle of my jaw. Also, my nose has a high bridge, so I am wondering if rhinoplasty might off set the look of the jaw. Right now, my jaw line and the bridge of my nose are almost parallel lines. What are my options?

A: What Can I Expect For My Profile From Chin Surgery Vs Rhinoplasty?

Let me start out by saying that the proper way to evaluate the face, on profile, is for the jaw to be at a 90 degree angle with the neck. In this picture your chin and face are pointing downwards, making the chin appear weaker than it may in fact be. Aesthetically speaking, if the chin is weak, determined by an imaginary line drawn downward from the lower lip, a Chin Implant placed through an incision under the chin would augment the chin without affecting the bite.

The nose has a slight hump that could be removed but I can't evaluate the tip rotation or projection since the nose is also facing downwards and is not at the aesthetic rest/start point. Be sure that the Rhinoplasty Surgeon, you select, understands and follows the proper aesthetics of facial (and nasal) beauty foir the creation of a naturally, more attractive face and nose.

A: chin implant

I do not think a chin implant will accentuate the downward angle. If you photoshop your photo adding just in front of the chin, nothing below it, I think you will see that the look gets you closer to what you want. If you get the square chin implant though it will masculinize your profile. You may be a candidate for the jaw chin implant combination. You should investigate that option before proceeding with any surgery to see if that might give you the desired look.

I hope you realize that this format of posting questions and receiving answers lacks the face to face direct communication required for you to make an informed decision regarding your surgery.

My response to your question/post does not represent formal medical advice or constitute a doctor patient relationship. You need to consult with i.e. personally see a board certified plastic surgeon in order to receive a formal evaluation and develop a doctor patient relationship.

	“Pretty Smile Gone, Long Chin Even...” Hi there, I just had a chin implant and neck lipo 11 days ago, and I am so unhappy with it, I cannot stop crying. I had a receding chin from profile view that I always hated, hence the desire for surgery. However, I always loved my face from frontal view, especially when smiling, that's when I always felt at my prettiest. I always felt my chin was too long though. My doctors told me... more
	“Crooked Smile After Chin Implant -...” A month ago I underwent a chin augmentation in hopes that it would give my very weak profile a more aesthetically pleasing appearance. I have always been insecure about my very weak chin that makes me looks much younger than I really am. I met with a plastic surgeon who ensured me multiple times that I could have a nice, strong jawline with a large size chin implant. I felt comfortable... more
	“My Chin Implant is Too High - Los...” I had my chin implant almost 5 weeks ago and I feel my implant was riding too high. It is like in between my teeth and chin bone. Not only my chin, my entire face now looks shorter and more round than before. My old chin was weak but long and sharp. My surgery said it is because the swelling, some muscle is still pushing the implant up. I don't know if it is true. I have no options but... more
	“2 Chin Implants and a Neck Lift -...” I had my first chin implant when I was 20 years old. The doctor recommended using a smaller implant so my face doesn't look too round. I had very full cheeks back then. Overall, the implant improved my profile a little but not that much. The placement of the implant was also a little high according to the plastic surgeon that did my second implant. After asking my husband and other family... more

I was opting for asian rhinoplasty at first but my doctor recommended a chin implant instead.. (My chin receded but it wasn't bad or anything.. it did me make me look young in a way). Also, I didn't even know my chin was small or receded until my doctor... more

	“Chin Implant Removal” I got a chin implant 4 years ago to improve on my profile. However, the implant gave my face a long apperance, so i had if removed 5 months later.
