I want to not only augment my chin, but eliminate the fat underneath my chin and sculpt my jawline. I'm not sure what type of surgery would be best and if I should get chin liposuction along with the surgery.
Answer: Should I get chin implant, sliding genioplasty, or mandibular advancement? The side profile photograph demonstrates a week and recessive gene profile and fatty deposits in the neck. A chin implant can accomplish augmenting the chin forward to help facial balance and proportions for cosmetic purposes. Chin implants are placed under local anesthesia as an outpatient procedure. The fatty deposits in the neck can be removed with liposuction. If the teeth are significantly out of alignment, consider a sliding genioplasty procedure. A sliding Genioplasty is performed by an oral surgeon under general anesthesia as an inpatient procedure at a hospital with an overnight hospital stay. For more information and many before-and-after examples of chin implants and neck liposuction, please see the video and the link below

Answer: Chin augmentation In order to answer that question you need to be evaluated with X-Rays. From your question it seems that this has already happened. All three procedures will improve your profile. Discuss your options with your doctors. Be sure to receive a consultation form a surgeon who can do all three procedures, good luck

Answer: Chin Augmentation and Submental Fat Reduction If you have a stable bite then mandibular advancement is not an option. The choice comes down to either a chin implant or a sliding genioplasty. The combination of a sliding genioplasty and submental liposuction would produce the greatest chin/neck shape improvement.

Answer: CHIN AUGMENTATION CANDIDATE with SUBMENTAL LIPOSUCTION Dear Rachelhenn, A chin augmentation would be the simplest way to get improvement in the projection of your chin. Sub-mental/cervical liposuction would add the definition that you desire in your profile and help balance your facial aesthetics. See examples of chin augmentation in the link below and chin augmentation with lipo-sculpture in the video above. Best regards, Michael V. Elam, M.D.

Answer: Want to augment my chin, eliminate the fat underneath my chin and sculpt my jawline. Hi, I have performed many facial shaping procedures using dermal fillers, facial implants (cheek, chin), liposuction and/or facelifts for over 30 years. From the photos, your cheeks are very flat in the front, there is excess fat below the cheeks and chin, chin is weak as are the posterior (back) portions of the jaw line. These combine to create a rectangularly shaped face.
