Chin implants can most certainly change the jaw line. A complete evaluation with physical exam and profile views is necessary to determine the best option. Remember that there are several different kinds of implants so be sure to discuss your goals with your physician before proceeding.

Chin and jaw implant
There are implants that are placed over the chin and extend back over the jaw. Eventhough, it is difficult form these pictures to ascertain what you desire, such an implant may be what you are after.

A chin jowl implant can help with this
There are different types of implants that not only augment you chin, but wrap around the sides of your jaw that will give you better definition in this area.
