I have been looking into a chin implant because I have a weak chin right now. I have read that due to the implant pulling the skin forward slightly, the jaw appears more defined because. I am just wondering if there is any truth to that?

Answer: Chin Augmentation Concerns Dear Jay7032, Chin augmentation is designed to bring balance to the facial features and this is not necessarily including the definition of the jaw. On occasions other procedures would be involved including liposuction or buccal fat pad removal however these would be determined for candidacy at the time of a consultation appointment. Seek consultations with experienced surgeons either by appointment, email or telephone for further expert opinion. Best regards, Michael V. Elam, M.D.

Answer: Will Chin Implant Improve Jaw Definition? A chin/jowl implant will improve jaw definition and lift the adjacent lax skin. Many times liposuction of the area under the chin and the lateral neck will compliment this improvement.
