Chin / Jawline augmentation
Lower face rejuvenation similar to the attached photo may be achieved by a combination of liposuction under the chin, a chin implant or fat grafting to the chi, and fat grafting to create a more defined jawline.. Depending on the age of the patient and skin laxity, a suture suspension necklift might be beneficial.
In cosmetic surgery patients that do not have a sharp transition in profile between the submental area (area below the jawline) and the anterior neck, and in patients who...

Improving jaw line with a chin augmentation
The best way to improve the jaw line in patients who have a deficiency or are in need of a better chin jaw angle called the cervicomental angle is often the use of an anatomic chin implant along the jaw bone itself. This procedure is relatively straight forward and typically involves a small incision under the chin or may be done using an incision inside the mouth. Good luck in your area.

Obtaining a well defined jawline
It is difficult to provide you with any recommendations without seeing before photos or performing an exam. A chin implant yields a fantastic result for the right candidate. I would recommend a consultation with an experienced surgeon who uses computer imaging software. He/she may morph a photo of you and give you an idea of how the final result of surgery may appear. I hope this helps, and good luck!

Finding the Best Surgeon for a Chin Augmentation

Too often, patients choose a physician based on a catchy ad, the brand name of a technique, the basis of one or two before and after photos, or their web site’s search engine ranking....

Options for chin augmentation
You have two very good options for augmenting the chin. One would involve placing a filler like Restylane, Juvederm or Radiesse along the surface of the bone to give you fullness there. This can also be extended along the jawline, if necessary. Injections are doen as an office visit.
The other option is the surgical placement of an implant that rests along the bone and provides the fullness you desire. The incision can be placed under the chin, or inside the mouth for a scarless procedure!

A Chin Augmentation Procedure Would Be A Great Choice

1) Longer Jawline
2) Sharper Neckline
3) Improved Facial Balance and Harmony
Chin augmentation can be done either with:
1) Surgery--Chin implant (Permanent but...

Chin Augmentation Improves the Projection of the Jawline in Profile View
Be aware that what this celebrity photo shows is a rhinoplasty and a chin augmentation result. Nothing else has been done to her jawline behind the chin, that is her natural jawline. It is just that her hair obscures the back half of her jawline in the before photo so it looks like in the after photo that her whole jawline has been augmented which is not true. This is a classic example of the powerful effects of a combined nasal reduction and chin enlargement done simultaneously...which is...
