19 year old female, weak chin: would a chin implant help? (photos)

Thank you for your question and photos. The appearance of a weak chin can be improved through nonsurgical augmentation or the insertion of a chin implant. Nonsurgical augmentation uses a combination of dermal fillers and collagen stimulators to add volume to the chin and create a stronger jawline.
A custom-fit chin implant can also improve the appearance of a weak chin and side profile while balancing the facial proportions. Injectable treatment can last for up to 18 months or more, while chin implants are permanent unless they are removed at a later time. I recommend scheduling an in-person consultation with an experienced, board-certified facial plastic surgeon or injector who can assess your concerns and suggest the best course of action.

It sounds like you are a good candidate for a genioplasty. This is a permanent procedure that allows us to pretty much put your chin in whatever position you like. It would add length to your jawline, projection to your chin and help to balance out your profile. I recommend it over an implant for several reasons, but I suggest you do some research into what a genioplasty is!

Dear Versatile748902,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. Based on your photos, it looks like you would benefit from chin augmentation. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.
