Your photos do not demonstrate a recessive chin. Your chin has good projection and I would not recommend a chin implant for you.
Hello and thank you for your question. A formal evaluation would be needed to determine the best treatment. You would actually get a nice improvement with lip fillers, since your lips seem deficient relative to your nose and chin in these pictures- they should all be in a straight line when viewed from the side (profile view). Volbella, Restylane, and Juvederm are good to create a symmetrical lip. NovaThreads can be used to improve lift and shape. Implants or fat are alternatives. Technique will be important here, so you'll want to see someone meticulous. I suggest getting a consultation with an experienced cosmetic dermatologist and facial sculpting expert, or an aesthetic facial plastic surgeon like Dr. Donald Groves; we are both located right here in Los Angeles. Best, Dr. Emer
The photos indicate that you have adequate chin projection but your chin is short in the vertical dimension. You have a deep mentolabial fold, which can be improved with a vertical lengthening genioplasty. This would give you better lower facial balance.
Thank you for your question. In general, when the chin projection exceeds the projection of the lower lip, a chin augmentation is likely to produce a disproportion. Based on this, it seems you do not have a recessive chin, and it may be better to avoid a chin implant.If you want to understand better what further projection of the chin would do, you can rely on computer simulation to give you some guidance about the balance of the profile. This would help you see the potential impact of additional chin projection.
Based on your profile photos, you appear to have a strong chin appearance. Perhaps you're not seeing this due to the droopy appearance of your nasal tip. You do not appear to be a candidate for chin implant surgery. I hope this helps! Sincerely, Dr Joseph
Unfortunately, your photographs are inadequate. You need a true lateral photograph as well as straight on photographs. Best Wishes, Gary Horndeski, M.D.
A formal evaluation would be needed to determine the best treatment. There are surgical and non-surgical options to correct this. We can place a chin implant, which is a quick surgical procedure. Many of my patients try to avoid surgery, however, so for those patients, we also offer...
Hello, Thank you for your question regarding the concern about marionette lines following your V-line chin surgery. A chin implant can be a potential solution, but it may not be the first line of action. Here’s a suggested approach: 1. 3D Imaging and Computer Simulation: To evaluate the p...
