Can I have a cleft chin implant? (Photo)

Without an exam your question cannot be answered.  You will need to see an Oral/Maxillofacial surgeon to see if othognathic surgery, genioplasty or using an implant is best for your specific case. It should be noted that patients with severely weak jaws or abnormally functioning jaws may be better treated with other facial surgery (orthognathic surgery), although a chin augmentation may be an option at a later time. These patients should seek the advice of a plastic surgeon to determine which course is right for them. Here is some information to help you make this decision: Candidates for Chin Augmentation - Patients whose chin profiles are weak but have normally functioning jaws are candidates for Chin Augmentation. Many of these candidates have used injectable fillers in the past to strengthen the protrusion of their chins, but are looking for a permanent solution. If you are one of these patients, then you are a likely candidate for chin augmentation

The shape of your chin is feminine and only slightly recessed. The photo of the chin you prefer is actually more square and masculine. I would recommend some jaw re-shaping with liposuction beneath your chin and along the jawline. Once the jawline is given a youthful contour, you might be satisfied with the appearance of your chin. Good luck

Dear Lolitagurl,you might be a candidate for a chin implant but it is really hard to tell without a detailed examination. If you are considering a surgery, I would recommend you to consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon.Daniel Barrett, MD, MHA, MS

The cleft in the chin on the model photograph is a result of soft tissue, not bone. Chin implants are a bony augmentation and cannot create a cleft.

 Hi, I have performed many facial shaping procedures, including Chin Augmentation with dermal fillers or silastic chin implants, for over 30 years.  From the photos, your cheeks are quite flat in the front (left is more flat than the right), there is excess fat in the lower face/under the chin and the chin is quite weak.  These combine to create an elongated, oval shaped face.  Following my beauty principles, women look the most feminine, youthful and attractive with heart shaped faces.  Heart shaped faces have cheeks that are full and round in the front.  Cheek augmentation with a dermal filler or using silastic cheek implants for a permanent enhancement will create full, round cheeks that will feminize the entire face.  This would be combined with liposuction to reduce excess fat to further shape the cheeks and face. This becomes important if you are seriously considering a silastic chin implant with a cleft, as a cleft chin is a relatively "masculinizing" chin characteristic.  My point being that although a properly placed silastic chin implant, as described below, will indeed "correct" your weak chin...a cleft chin implant in a face with flat cheeks (that add angularity to the face which is also a relatively masculine facial characteristic) would masculinize your face.  In this scenario you might either: choose to augment your cheeks to feminize your face to offset the masculinizing effects of placing a cleft chin implant or in my humble better still is to use an extended anatomical chin implant along with cheek augmentation that would feminize, balance and create harmony in the face.  Whether feminizing the female face or masculinizing a male face, I find following the appropriate aesthetic facial characteristics creates a more beautiful or handsome face in the most naturally, attractive manner. When the chin is weak, this creates an imbalance making the nose appear larger, the mid face top heavy, the lower face looks short, de-emphasizes the lips and allows early formation of a "double chin".  
 Proper placement of a silastic chin implant adds forward projection to the chin thereby creating harmony and balance to the lower face.  Using the same incision, liposuction can be performed to reduce the fat and further shape the neck.  Excess skin, from below the chin, can also be removed through the same incision.  
 I have found that placement of a silastic chin implant, through a small curved incision under the chin (also allows excess skin removal) to be very safe, quick, highly effective and far less invasive than a sliding genioplasty (requires extensive tissue dissection, bone cuts and placement of metal screws and plates to secure the cut bone segments).  I perform chin implant surgery in 30 minutes or less, often using a local anesthetic alone.  In my opinion, you are a good candidate for chin implant surgery.  I hope this helps.
