Small, weak chin and jowl dips. Not interested in fillers, what procedure would be best for me? (photos)

Based on the photos you provided, you have a recessed chin, and you may be an ideal candidate for a chin implant. A chin implant is an excellent chin augmentation procedure that provides significant contour improvement and permanent results. It is also a good option for you since you don’t like fillers.

I recommend scheduling an in-person consultation with an experienced, board-certified facial plastic surgeon who can do a proper evaluation of your facial features and tailor the best procedure plan that will achieve the best possible results.

When thinking about chin augmentation, a chin implant or sliding genioplasty are the two main options. It is also worthwhile to have the surgeon look at your teeth to see if additional jaw surgery may be beneficial. In profile view, there is great upper lip support. Both chin asymmetry and protrusion can be addressed very well with sliding genioplasty.

I would recommend a genioplasty. This would give your chin more projection, add length and definition to your jawline and fix the slight asymmetry. With that, you may also benefit from buccal fat removal, which would reduce some of the fullness in your lower cheeks. You may also consider jawline lipo, but the genioplasty itself may get you the results you are looking for. Our office provides simulated morph photos of expected outcomes and we are happy to schedule a virtual or in-person consult to discuss things further!
