Chin Implant Surgery Procedure

Absolutely - in fact, longer (or more forward) is one the key reasons to get a chin implant. Fewer people need a wider chin, unless they want to masculinize the face. Lengthening the chin (to the proper proportion with the lower lip and rest of the face) can make your nose look better, and even improve wrinkles and fat under the neck. I'd suggest meeting with an experienced facial plastic surgeon for an individual consultation. Good luck!

Chin Implants To Increase Length

The answer is yes. There are wide variety of chin implants from different manufacturers that can be used to make your chin longer. I prefer silastic implants as Dr. Portuese pointed out. They come in sufficient sizes and shapes to accommodate most patients' desires. Often times digital imaging can help in the decision making process when it comes to chin augmentation using an implant.
