I have noticed my chin is receded in pictures and it has made me extremely self conscious.so I started looking into a slight chin implant. I went to a plastic surgeon and they did a before and after with a chin implant and rhinoplasty.Although it looks slightly better I think what bothers me is I have no jaw line. if I slide my jaw forward, my profile looks so much better. I don't know which procedure would be better for me.How will I know which is the best way to go?

Answer: Rhinoplasty and chin implant procedure A chin implant procedure is performed for patients to cosmetically push the chin forward to help with facial balance and proportions, especially with respect to the overly projecting nose. Chin implants are manufactured a large array of sizes and shapes, which is best determined at the time of the consultation and examination. Chin implants are performed under local anesthesia as an outpatient procedure if there are performed as a stand-alone procedure. Chin implants can also be performed at same time as a rhinoplasty under general anesthesia. A sliding genioplasty is performed by an oral surgeon under general anesthesia as an inpatient procedure with an overnight stay at a hospital.
