In our practice, we do do before and after simulations for placement of a chin implant at the time of the consultation. More important is to look at your prospective surgeon's before and after chin implant photo gallery to make sure it's extensive with lots of natural looking results. The procedure can be performed under a local anesthesia, as an outpatient procedure, which takes about 30 minutes.

After that, a chin implant can be considered, and if there is enough fat in the cheek area, buccal fat removal (bichectomy) could also be performed...
