21 Female 5 foot 5 110 pounds I have had this chin problem since birth. Mouth breather. Had braces few years back. Double jaw surgery necessary as well?
Answer: Chin surgery If you are happy with your appearance and can eat everything then no surgery is required. If you have trouble chewing food double jaw surgery may be indicated. If your concern is only aesthetic, chin surgery would be indicated. If appears that you have lower lip incompetence so the chin surgery would balance the lower portion of your face.

Answer: Chin augmentation Dear Mainecoonlover, it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.

Answer: Non-Surgical Chin Augmentation with Injectable Fillers -- Radiesse, Sculptra, Surgical Implants, See an Expert A formal evaluation would be needed to determine what's best. Many of my patients try to avoid surgery, so we perform a non-surgical chin augmentation treatment with injectable fillers. Fillers like Radiesse, Voluma, BellaFill as well as Sculptra are injected into the area, improving the overall appearance of the lower face and balancing the jaw and lip harmony. We use cannula injections to meticulously contour and project the chin, soften the chin along the jawline and improve the chin crease. Implants are still a great option once you are 100% positive that you are ready for a permanent enhancement. I suggest getting a consultation with an experienced cosmetic dermatologist and facial sculpting expert; our practice is located right here in Los Angeles. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Chin implant candidate for receded chin Placement of a chin implants can be performed under local anesthesia as an outpatient procedure which takes approximate 30 minutes. This procedure accomplishes augmenting the chin forward. Placement of the chin implant is less invasive.. Double jaw surgery is performed by an oral surgeon in a hospital setting with an overnight stay at the hospital. Double jaw surgery is usually done when the teeth are significantly out of alignment.
