Can Chin Implants Be Knocked out of Alignment?

Once healed, chin implants are solid and heal directly against the bone. I believe that you would have to sustain a blow directly to the chin so hard that it would be more likely that you would fracture your jaw, than move the implant.

Chin implants are one of my favorite operations and combined with a rhinoplasty the procedures can significantly enhance one's appearance and self confidence. The chin is an important part of the face as witnessed by the many phrases we have in our society like: "keep your chin up", "he took it on the chin", "by the hair of your chiny chin chin" etc.

A recent study of the CEO's of Fortune 500 companies showed that not only are CEO's taller than the average poplulation, but they also tend to have a stronger chin than the general population. With the exception of people who started their own company, as opposed to being hired for the job. Such as Bill Gates, who has a soft chin.

Good luck.

Be sure to discuss your concerns with your surgeon, and they will advise you accordingly.

Thank you for your question!  Chin implants are very stable, you shouldn't have a problem with it getting knocked around.  Seek a board certified plastic surgeon and have a consultation.  Best of luck! Dr Dhaval PatelDouble Board Certified Plastic SurgeonChicagoHoffman EstatesOak Brook

It is very challenging to get your chin implant knocked out of
alignment unless you have had significant trauma.
