I'm getting a rhinoplasty and my doctor recommended I would benefit from a chin implant. I have an asymmetric lower face and a Slight receding chin. I'm worried it will make my face look more oval, have a witches chin and be more pointy at the chin . I want a more round face. Will the implant make my face more oval? And would I benefit from the implant in a positive way?

Answer: Chin augmentation with Rhinoplasty The relationship of the nose and chin / jawline is very important for facial balance and proportions. Your nose is slightly over projected while your chin is slightly under projected. In addition you have a significant prejowl notching. Therefore, you would benefit from a anterior mandibular augmentation (chin prejowl) to create smoother jawline. Please consult with an experienced facial plastic surgeon to discuss your concerns and options.

Answer: Chin Augmentation You do have some legitimate concerns about the effects of a chin implant in your face. You need to look at some computer imaging of what it can do and determine whether it can achieve what you want as well as avoid what your concerns are. Chin augmentation changes more than just the projection of the chin but also its shape...which appears to be where your major concerns with the procedure are.
