I am an Asian male in my early 20s. I have a really weak chin which runs in my family, but my chin is particularly recessive. I would like to know what are the options for me to improve my profile and to create a stronger chin. Please also state any good cosmetic surgeons in NYC and also the approx. price of a chin augmentation (in regards to the procedure needed to be done). I would also like to know the amount of time for recovery since I am a young working professional.
Chin augmentation is a simple procedure that can be performed under local anesthesia whereby a small ½ inch incision is made underneath the chin so that a chin implant can be placed across the chin line. The size of the implant is usually selected at the time of consultation. There is usually a price of approximately $3000 and patients usually have about one to two weeks of significant swelling around the chin area.
Hello and nice finding you! I really need to ask you a question and i uploaded a photo for you to have a more clear view.I want to improve my chin.I don't have problem in biting,despite having a retrusion (my lower and upper teeth don't fit) but I don't want to fix this problem anyway.I only want to improve my chin.Can I use large or extra large implant to do the job because I want to avoid to interfere by breaking jaw etc or there is no other way?? Thanks a lot to everyone!
The best option for retrusive chin is to perform a chin augmentation, which can be done under local anesthesia. The size and shape of the implant would be determined at the time of the consultation based on the patient’s needs and wishes. It is important not to select too large of an implant, otherwise results will appear unnatural.
My weak chin/jaw has bothered me for years and It's especially bad when I bite down. I now push my chin/jaw down and forward at all times in order to make it look like my jaw and chin are strong. I know some chin implants wrap around the jaw to make it more angular. Am I eligible for chin/jaw augmentation and is my 4th picture a reasonable expectation? The first 2 pictures are of me biting down. The third is how I hold my jaw normally. The fourth is how i'd like my jawline to look.
Chin and jaw implants come in multiple different sizes and shapes. The right implant for you should be determined at your consultation appointment with the surgeon. The chin implant is placed through a submental incision, onto the bone to give the illusion of a longer chin and jaw line. The jaw implant is placed through an intraoral approach over the angle of the mandible and gives a more squared jaw appearance. Both the procedures can be done at the same time under brief general anesthesia.
