I think I need a chin augmentation as my chin is quite recessed and I hate how it looks but what else would help with my side profile? I'm only 20 so what are my non surgical or surgical options?
Answer: How can you improve your side profile? 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 #weakchin #chinimplant

Answer: Chin augmentation? It looks that chin augmentation would be a good procedure for you. It can be achieved with soft tissue fillers and will give you opportunity to see result of augmentation without committing to that permanently. If you like it, you may consider continuing with fillers, have chin implant or augmentation with fat grafts. In-person consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon with expertise in chin augmentation would help. Good luck.

Answer: How can I improve my side profile and front profile? Seeing your side profile, you need a chin augmentation. Chin augmentation can be non-surgically via fillers and surgically by using chin implants. I can’t assess you photo completely for the frontal profile, but I can see you can do something to make your nose little sharper.

Answer: Chin Augmentation A small chin can be augmented by either surgery or non surgical techniques. The non surgical approach is a good first step to see if you like the result as surgery is permanent. I use a Calcium hydroxylapatite filler which results in both soft tissue augmentation and collagen stimulation and the results last up to 12 months and increase with second and third injections. Its very safe and effective. Surgical options are a chin silicone implant or bony surgery. I prefer the silicone implant as its far less invasive. In summary try the non surgical option first to see if it is what you like. Hope this is helpful.

Answer: Chin Implant Thank you for sharing your question and for providing photos. Chin implant would significantly improve your side and front profile.There are two different types of chin surgery; however, implantation (mentoplasty) is the most common and sought after procedure. Chin implants can be removed if need be and are made of synthetic materials that are not only completely safe, but they also feel like a real chin when touched. On the other hand, genioplasty is a chin augmentation surgery that does not use an implant. Instead, this procedure involves moving your bone forward to increase the projection of your chin.Please see a board certified plastic surgeon familiar with this surgery.
