Do I Need Just a Chin Augmentation or Are my Lips Too Large? (photo)

Full lips are a great thing. Lots of people pay very good money to achieve full lips! I wouldn't consider changing your lips in any way. A chin implant by augmenting your chin/ jaw will improve the balance of your lower face and create the illusion of smaller, or at least more balanced, lips. I hope this information is helpful.Stephen Weber MD, FACSWeber Facial Plastic Surgery

You do appear to be a good candidate for a chin augmentation.  You also do have lips that are on the larger end of the spectrum.  Lip size is really a matter of personal preference and some people prefer having larger lips.  I would recommend having the chin augmentation procedure first and then see how you feel about the lips.  It is possible that the chin implant may make your lips appear relatively a bit smaller.  

A chin implant would improve your jaw line and enhance facial balance and symmetry. In short, I think you would be an excellent candidate. There is little doubt that having a chin that is the appropriate size will change your perception of your midface triangle. Your midface in general will seem less prominent or strong. With this in mind, you should get your chin done first and see how you like the outcome. Should you feel strongly afterwards that your lips need to be made smaller that can be performed under local anesthesia without significant down time. Good luck and as always choose an experienced surgeon who specializes in facial aesthetics, has lots of photos that you like and gives you a sense of confidence.
