Will you essentially be getting a chin implant that should last your entire life or will you need to maintain it and redo it every so many years like breast implants?
Answer: Longevity Of A Chin Implant Chin implants generally last a lifetime. Overwhelmingly, they will never have to be changed out. However, because a patient's body changes with time and age, they sometimes decide to remove an implant or switch it out for another size. This is easy to do with silicone and that's what I recommend.

Answer: Are revisions or maintenance needed after getting a chin implant? Chin implants do not normally need to be replaced to maintain them. In rare instances, a revision may be needed if the implant has moved for some reason, but this normally would be done fairly soon after placing it. In most cases, no other procedures are needed once it is placed.

Answer: Chin implant Chin implant surgery is routinely performed and results will hopefully be long term without any maintenance. However because there is a plastic implant on your chin, scar tissue build up, bony erosion or infection can occur down the track. I prefer moving the bone of your own chin point forward as it gives a more natural long lasting result with little chance of long term problems. Its essential to choose a fully qualified and experienced plastic surgeon.

Answer: Chin Implantation- Very durable and effective Thanks for you question regarding chin implants and enhancement. This is a great procedure that is very quickly performed in experienced hands. It can really improve the profile of many patients and when placed carefully can last a very long time, potentially lifetime. I commonly perform this on male patients seeking improved jawlines in combination with neck liposuction. It is also common for this to be performed on rhinoplasty patients to improve their facial balance.I hope this is helpful to you.Regards

Answer: Once getting a chin implant, is there any need for revisions or maintenance? Hi, I have performed many chin augmentations using silastic chin implants for over 30 years. When placed through a small, curved incision under the chin (I perform chin implant surgery in less than 30 minutes often using a local anesthetic alone), the procedure is quick, safe and highly effective...providing permanent augmentation to the chin. There's no requirement to exchange or otherwise modify the implant and no routine maintenance is needed. Hope this helps.
