Will my Chin Look Better After Rhynoplasty?

Harmony between parts of the face is very important when thinking about any surgical changes to the face. In most cases, rhinoplasty makes the nose somewhat smaller and more symmetric.  This can have the effect of making the chin seem a bit bigger, but it is relative to the reduction in the size of the nose. For patients with a very large nose and a much smaller chin, I will often add a chin implant to dramatically improve the facial proportions. Best of luck going forward!

The nose and chin are seen in proportion to one another.  A larger chin de-emphasizes a nose, whereas, a smaller chin makes the nose seem more projecting.  Three finger breadths is a satisfactory amount of chin, so my guess is that the rhinoplasty will make your chin look more proportional than it was prior to surgery.  At ChangesPlasticSurgery.com we offer Vectra 3-D imaging so that you can see directly how a rhinoplasty will impact the appearance of your chin (and vice versa).

 Without any pictures it very difficult to say what the result would look like. Sometimes the nose is projected and sometimes notices de-projected,  it all depends upon the pre-existing anatomy. Please see the link below for examples of the combination of rhinoplasty and chin implant in our practice
