Would I be a good candidate for a chin implant? (Photo)

Hello, hope you are well. A properly sized chin implant would add projection to you chin, bringing it closer to ideal alignment with the upper and middle thirds of your face. There are variations in shape and size that I typically review with the patient at the initial office consultation, so you can have a better understanding of the 3-dimensional change in shape that can be achieved. In rare circumstances, a custom implant can be created. I usually perform chin implant placement transorally through an incision in the sulcus between the gingiva/teeth and lower lip under local anesthesia. It's a simple, reliable and satisfying method of augmenting the chin. Hope this helps!

Thanks for the question. Based on your photo, your chin looks a bit receded. Chin implant surgery is a cosmetic surgery procedure that involves inserting an implant to enhance the shape and projection of the chin. The procedure is typically recommended for individuals who have a weak or recessed chin, which can affect their facial profile and balance. If you are interested in a chin implant, it is recommended that you consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon who can evaluate your individual situation and provide you with personalized recommendations. I wish you the best.
