Jaw Implant For Round Face? I have a very round, "moon" face with little definition and bone structure. I was wondering if jaw implants would help give more definition and help give my lower face a more v-shape by giving my mandible angle more projection and then have the rest of my face taper in. If so, what type of jaw implant would you recommend and what is the average price range for such a surgery? Thanks!

A: Jaw Implants vs. Radiesse for Facial definition

Hi there-

Without a consultation and examination, it is not possible to responsibly answer your question.

I can tell you that it is possible to improve the mandibular profile using jaw implants. We have also had success achieving patient's goals for an improved profile with Radiesse injections, which can last up to two years without surgery.

A: Feel of chin implants

I would say that almost always chin implants do look and feel very natural after normal healing has occurred.

How Does a Doctor Determine if a Chin Implant Has to Be Removed? Can a doctor just tell by looking or feeling it or is an x-ray required or some kinda scan?

A: Removal of chin implant?

An xray is not the answer to whether or not an implant should be removed. It depends on whether it is causing a problem for the patient--is there an infection, has the implant moved, nerve damage, or does it adversely affect the appearance? These are the most common reasons to recommend removal.
