I'm 25. Had a septoplasty/turbinate reduction in 2007 but my nose is still deviated and one side remains about 50% obstructed. I am strongly considering a septorhinoplasty to finally address my deviated septum and I wonder if adding chin augmentation will create any complications/significantly worsen recovery? I have never done cosmetic surgery before but I am unhappy with my side profile and I want to address my recessed chin due to long face syndrome/mouth breathing as an adolescent.
Answer: Chin implants I am not crazy about chin implants. You actually look as though you have a jaw deformity and placing a chin implant may just be putting a bandaid on the underlying problem. Consider going to an oral and maxilla facial surgeon to find out what is really going on.

CONTACT NOW Answer: Can I get a chin augmentation at the same time as a septorhinoplasty? A chin augmentation is often performed in combination with a rhinoplasty, and will not create complications or worsen recovery if the procedure is performed properly. It is preferred to have the procedures together, as you will only have one recovery. I would recommend an in-person consult with a board certified revision rhinoplasty specialist. He/she will be able to examine you in person and provide you with advice. I hope this helps, and I wish you the best of luck.

Answer: Chin Implant and Rhinoplasty When needed, a chin implant is very commonly performed at the same time as a Rhinoplasty and that is preferable because you go through one Anesthetic and the healing time is the same as just a Rhinoplasty. A chin implant usually enhances the result of the Rhinoplasty. You should seek a consultation with an experienced Facial Plastic Surgeon and have him perform computer imaging do you can see what your new profile would look like before proceeding with the surgery.

Answer: Can I get chin augmentation at the same time as a rhino/septoplasty? Will recovery be worse if the procedures are combined? For optimal cosmetic results a rhinoplasty with a chin augmentation procedure would dramatically change your profile and add balance to your lower face. With regard to recovery, adding a chin implant will not change your recovery time. It typically takes a couple of weeks to heal following chin augmentation and several months to a year to heal following rhinoplasty. These procedures are commonly performed together and can have a dramatic effect on a person's profile. I hope this information is helpful.Stephen Weber MD, FACS
