What procedure would help with my chin and approximate cost? (Photo)

To address concerns about the appearance of your chin, there are several procedures that could help achieve a more balanced and aesthetically pleasing profile:

Chin Augmentation (Genioplasty or Mentoplasty): This surgical procedure can reshape or resize the chin by repositioning the bone or using implants. It can help create a more harmonious facial profile if the chin is perceived as too prominent or pointy.

Liposuction: If excess fat is contributing to the appearance of your chin, submental liposuction can remove this fat, providing a more contoured look.

Dermal Fillers: In some cases, strategic use of dermal fillers can help reshape the chin and jawline to achieve a more balanced appearance. This is a non-surgical option with minimal downtime.

Kybella: This injectable treatment is designed to dissolve submental fat (under the chin). It can help reduce the appearance of fullness if excess fat is a concern.

Orthognathic Surgery: If the issue is related to jaw alignment, orthognathic surgery might be needed to reposition the jaw and correct any underlying skeletal discrepancies.

In terms of cost, the price of these procedures can vary widely based on geographic location, the specific procedure chosen, the provider's expertise, and other factors. Here are some approximate cost ranges:
Chin Augmentation: $3,000 to $8,000
Liposuction: $2,000 to $5,000
Dermal Fillers: $600 to $1,200 per syringe
Kybella: $1,200 to $1,800 per session
Orthognathic Surgery: $20,000 to $40,000

It's advisable to consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon or facial plastic surgeon who can evaluate your specific concerns and recommend the best treatment plan for your needs.

We reduce the chin bone and soft tissue through a multipart procedure that is all done at the same time. There is a period of swelling afterwards but it heals well.

Chin reduction can help with a large protruding chin 'Witch's chin'. This is usually an abundance of soft tissue which causes a bulge. The procedure involves making an incision below the chin, accessing the extra soft tissue and removing it while taking care to preserve the muscles. Along with this some skin is removed below the chin to have a pulling effect on the chin and leading to a smaller or less protruding chin.
