Who Is the Ideal Chin Augmentation Candidate?

Generally chin augmentation suits individuals who have a round face or unsymmetrical face proportion, such as having the upper facial structure with forehead or cheek bones that point out but have recessed chin. Chin augmentation can help add more dimensions to the face. It also suits those who would like to contour their face to a more oval shape, which is trendy these days. Chin augmentation also enhance the personality and features.

How Should I Prepare for Augmentation?

There are two techniques – non-surgical and surgical augmentation procedure.

Let’s begin with surgical augmentation.

There are two types of surgical augmentation:

Silicone Implant

• If it is hidden incision augmentation, the surgery will be done from the inner or inside the mouth. This technique is very popular right now. As for the surgery from outside, sometimes a scar is left under the chin.

Sliding Genioplasty or Jaw Move

• For this technique, apart from giving a good result for beautiful chin, there is a benefit which helps with snoring because the jaw bone is connected to the breathing and air flow. When it was moved, the ventilation path will be widened. This technique can be costly as it is a lower jaw bone surgery and should be done only be a specialist.

What Is the Post-Op Care for the Incision?

• The process is not complicated. Just take the antibiotics prescribed by the doctor and keep the cleanliness by frequently mouth washing. The incision will heal quicker and not risk for infection.
• The period that must be closely taken care of is during the 7 days before the stitches are removed. After that, the patient can return to daily activities.
• If ones would like to wear makeup, they can do so. It is important to be careful as to not bump into the chin area.
• Avoid some extreme sports that could be a problem as the implants could stick out.

*For beautiful shapes, patients should be careful not letting their chins hitting anything for the first three weeks of post operation to avoid swelling, deform and inflammation.

After Chin Augmentation, Can One Rest One’s Chin on One’s Hands?

• Yes, once the area has healed. During the early periods of post-op recovery, it is important to avoid this because of the risk of inflammation.

What Other Procedures Can Be Combined with Chin Augmentation?

• For a comprehensive improvement of the lower fat, chin liposuction and buccal fat removal may be performed with chin augmentation.
