Chin implants aims to augment an under-projected chin. Chin is the most important aesthetic feature of our lower face. And nose is the most important aesthetic feature of our middle face. Chin and nose together form facial projection and shape.
Chin can be under formed genetically or can be week and droopy by age. Due to aging, the jawline weakens, caused by volume loss, a natural decrease in bone and muscle mass. Over years, this less volume muscle and fat tissue begins to shrink downwards and makes a tired appearance on your face. Chin implants make your chin more prominent, stiffen the week tissue and prevent week tissue ptosis.
Chin augmentation is an outpatient procedure, it can be performed under local and general anesthesia. It takes about an hour.
