Hi. I think I am going to get the small or medium one, and both of them got a projection of 0,65 cm. That does not sound much? Can you even see any differense? When I look at 0,65 cm on a measuring tape it so little! Also I think my surgeon are going to carve it so it does not get to wide. I want the implant to give me a pointy look. Is the curvilinear implant a good option?
Answer: Candidate for a chin augmentation? 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: Female Chin Implant Whether a 6.5mm central thick projecting chin implant is enough or inadequate for your chin augmentation needs depends on your aesthetic goals. Without computer imaging of your pictures it would be impossible to say. Aa a general statement comparing linear measurements on the outside usually underestimates the impact that the whole implant has when placed on the inside.

Answer: Does a curvilinear chin implant from Implantech give a significant projection? In our practice, we have used Implantech brand of solid silicone chin implants for over 26 years with an excellent success rate. Most of the implants that we use in our practice are size small and medium Mittleman pre-jowl chin implants. They can be custom carved when necessary to match patient's unique anatomy. Both the size and the shape of the implant are very important, so that must be determined at the time of the consultation and examination, since both the chin and the implants are 3-dimensional structures. Chin augmentation occurs in all 3 dimensions. The implants are usually placed through a small incision underneath the chin under local anesthesia as an outpatient procedure. For many examples of chin implants and diagrams of the chin implants themselves, please see the link and the video below

Answer: Curvilinear chin implant from implantech give a significant projection? Hi, I have performed many facial shaping procedures, including Chin Augmentation with dermal fillers or silastic chin implants, for over 30 years. Non smiling photos of your face from the front and side would help in the evaluation. When the chin is weak, this creates an imbalance making the nose appear larger, the mid face top heavy, the lower face look short, de-emphasizes the lips and allows early formation of a "double chin".
