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
Based on your photos you have a mild disbalance of the profile which can be corrected with rhinoplasty and chin implant. There is a versatility of chin implants from which your surgeon can select best fit for you. In-person consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon with good reputationin in nose surgery should be your next step. Good luck.
I believe that you would benefit from either a chin implant, or an advancement genioplasty. Sometimes large implants will make your face too masculine. An advancement genioplasty moves your own bone and will not overly widened your face. The genioplasty will also give you the best neck form, which is what is shown in your photographs of those celebrities. He would also benefit from a rhinoplasty to refine her nose and lift the nasal tip. Find a board-certified surgeon who does frequent nasal and chin surgery for the best outcome.

Hi, I have performed many facial shaping procedures, including Chin Augmentation with dermal fillers or silastic chin implants, for over 30 years. From the photos, your chin is weak and your nose is a bit wide with a dorsal bump. When the chin is weak, this creates an imbalance making the nose appear larger, the mid face top heavy, the lower face looks short, de-emphasizes the lips and allows early formation of a "double chin". Proper placement of a silastic chin implant adds forward projection to the chin thereby creating harmony and balance to the lower face. Using the same incision, liposuction can be performed to reduce the fat and further shape the neck. Excess skin, from below the chin, can also be removed through the same incision. I have found that placement of a silastic chin implant, through a small curved incision under the chin (also allows excess skin removal) to be very safe, quick, highly effective and far less invasive than a sliding genioplasty (requires extensive tissue dissection, bone cuts and placement of metal screws and plates to secure the cut segments of bone). I perform chin implant surgery in 30 minutes or less, often using a local anesthetic alone. In my opinion, you are a good candidate for chin implant surgery. I prefer using EAC (extended anatomical Silastic chin implants) for what I feel provides the most natural results. Rhinoplasty can thin and refine the nose and I often perform these two surgeries together.Hope this helps.
The beauty of fat grafting is that you can graft it in just about anywhere you need some volume. In experienced hands and for good candidates, fat grafting to the face (including chin) is a great option as it offers many advantages over tissue fillers and facial implants. It's much more f...
This is a good question because the size difference between a large implant and an extra large implant sounds significant but it is inconsequential. There are millimeter differences in the sizes of the implants and it takes 5mm to make a cosmetic difference! I usually start with a...
