Chin Implant

Chin Implant

At O’Neill Plastic Surgery, we offer chin implant surgery to help patients enhance their facial balance and define their jawline. A well-proportioned chin plays a vital role in the overall harmony of the face. A chin implant can provide lasting, transformative results for those with a naturally weak or receding chin.

How It Works

A chin implant, also known as chin augmentation or genioplasty, is a cosmetic procedure designed to enhance the size and projection of the chin. Using a custom-fitted implant made from biocompatible material, this procedure adds structure to the lower face, creating better definition and balance among the facial features.

Chin augmentation is often performed alone. However, it can also be combined with procedures such as rhinoplasty or neck liposuction to refine the profile further and achieve optimal facial symmetry.

Benefits

Chin implant surgery offers several aesthetic benefits. It improves the projection of a recessed or underdeveloped chin, enhances the definition of the jawline, and creates better overall balance between the chin, nose, and other facial features. Patients often experience a more sculpted and confident appearance, with subtle yet striking results. Because the implant is permanent, the enhancements are long-lasting.

Who is a Good Candidate for a Chin Implant?

Ideal candidates for chin augmentation are individuals in good overall health who are bothered by a recessed chin. Patients must have realistic expectations and a stable facial structure, typically after complete facial growth. Dr. O’Neill will assess your goals during your consultation and recommend a personalized treatment plan to achieve the most natural and balanced outcome.

Downtime

Most patients experience minimal discomfort and swelling in the days following surgery. Downtime is typically one week, and full results become more apparent as swelling subsides over the following six months.
