Hi, I’m a 19-year old male that wishes to lengthen his Chin by using fillers/implants. The only worry I have now is the fact that I’m wearing braces. May I know if it is safe to carry on with the fillers/ implants anyway and whether the lengthening of my Chin will be significant? Thanks
Answer: Fillers with braces You should have no problems provided you go to an experienced injector and you are using the right product for the desired level of correction you are looking for. Best of luck!

Answer: Chn implant Candidate? 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

Answer: Fillers with Braces? Chin augmentation Yes, you can have fillers in the chin if you have braces. It will take 1-2 weeks for final results with fillers. I’d suggest augmenting your chin with Sculptra and/or Voluma. If you like your new look, you can make it permanent with a chin implant. I hope that helps.

Answer: Is it safe for a chin implant when wearing braces? Fillers do not work very well in chin location for a variety of reasons. When patients have a weak and recessive mandible and chin, placement of a solid silicone chin implant augments the mandible forward for better facial balance and proportions. Chin implants offer permanent augmentation to the chin, rather than fillers which are very temporary. The size, the thickness, and the shape of the chin implants are usually best determined at the time of examination and consultation. For many before-and-after examples of chin implants, please see the link and the video below

Answer: Is it safe to use chin fillers/implants when wearing braces? Yes, it is safe to alter your chin contour with either fill or a chin implant. The implant is the best technique and significantly less expensive in the long run as the implant is permanent, the filler needs to be replaced every few months to a year.
