I have a recessed chin from my profile view, but it looks normal from the front. Will the chin implant change this? Can a chin implant be installed differently to affect the frontal view?
Answer: Chin implant contour changes A chin implant has more influence on the profile or oblique view than on the front view. But implants can be selected that have more influence than others. As an example, you can get a more masculine shaped implant that creates a wider, more square chin pad. That would clearly looks changed from the front and side views. Or you an get a softer, more general implant that does not have as much squaring, and most of the effects are seen from the side. These are issues you need to discuss with your surgeon, and are aided by additional image morphing software.

Answer: Chin Implant The style of chin implant should take into consideration more than just the profile view. Chin implants can definitely affect chin width and most styles have the potential to make it wider. Certain chin implant styles will not affect the width or can be modified to not do so.

The mandible, chin area and the implants are all three-dimensional structures, therefore the augmentation is three-dimensional.

Answer: Will a chin implant change my frontal view? Hi, I have performed many Chin Augmentations using chin implants for over 30 years. From the photos, your chin is weak. A weak chin creates an imbalance making the nose appear larger, the mid face top heavy and the lower face look short that de-emphasizes the lips and allows early formation of a double chin. Chin augmentation using a chin implant will add projection to the chin creating harmony and balance to the lower face.
