Best chin options/surgery to remove cleft chin/chin dimple? (Photos)

The available options for cleft chin or chin dimple removal are the following options that we can explore:

1. Dermal Fillers: This is a non-surgical procedure wherein hyaluronic acid fillers are injected into the chin dimple to reduce its appearance. The result is usually temporary and may last between 6 to 18 months, depending on the individual's metabolism and the type of filler used.

2. Chin Augmentation: In this surgical procedure, an implant is placed in the chin to smooth out the dimple and enhance the overall shape and appearance of the chin and jawline.

3. Fat Grafting: This involves removing fat from another part of the body and injecting it into the chin to fill in the dimple. This can provide a more natural look and can be a permanent solution if the body accepts the transplanted fat cells.

4. Botox: Botox can be used to relax the muscles in the chin, reducing the appearance of the cleft. This is a temporary solution and requires regular upkeep.

5. Genioplasty: This is a surgical procedure that involves modifying the chin bone to change its shape and appearance. This is usually performed by a maxillofacial surgeon and can offer a permanent solution to a cleft chin.

Please note that each of these procedures carries its own risks and benefits, and the best option will depend on the specific needs and health status of the patient. A consultation with a skilled cosmetic surgeon or dermatologist will be necessary to determine the most suitable approach.

The easiest thing would be to do filler in the cleft only. The cleft is due to a bone issue, meaning that the only way to address it would be to put somerthing into that bone indentation, either filler or something else. An implant can help but it would build up other parts of the chin, which you said you didn't want.

In general, dimples may not be completely removed with fillers since they may be due to ligaments that extend from the skin down to the bone. We have had good success in minimizing the appearance of chin dimples with microdroplet Silikon-1000 injections for a permanent result. I hope this helps!

A simple little implant slid into the groove under local will fix the problem easily and quickly for roughly $3500.

Thank you for your question. Please see a plastic surgeon for this- a little filler in the chin can help that cleft in the middle.
