Chin implants are manufactured in a variety of sizes and shapes, are composed of Silastic, and can be inserted under local anesthesia as an outpatient procedure.

The chin implant will balance your face aesthetics. It usually addresses the front of the jaw. The jaw angle can be addressed by jaw implants. At the office we use the VECTRA 3d system where you can get a close approximation to your postoperative results. Without a picture of your face is hard to tell you which type of imant or implants are necessary and an in office evaluation is necessary for that.

Dear guit1997, Balancing out the profile with chin augmentation helps to bring a strong masculine appearance to the profile. Consultation and examination would be needed to determine what type of chin implant would be best for your facial aesthetic needs. Computer imaging can be done during your consultation which will help show you the proposed results. Best regards, Michael V. Elam, M.D.

For those who want the Kirk Douglas or Dudley Doright look the Rish implant works great. This was designed many years ago and is hard to find.

You are correct.  Men are ruggedly handsome when they have strong, angular features to their faces.  I prefer an anatomical chin implant for men to somewhat square the chin.  In addition, I use Radiesse to the mandibular angle (jaw) to provide that angularity.

Dennis Barek, MD (retired) · Answer

Chin implants can just augment the chin and an extended implant can also augment the sides of the chin. They will not do anything for the jaw proper.Mandibular implants are a different story and not a commonly used as chin implants.
