Bring balance and proportion to your face with a chin implant.

Why Get a Chin Implant?

If you want a stronger jaw, or additional facial and jawline contouring, facial plastic surgery with a chin implant can give you a chin that projects in proportion with your forehead, nose, and mid-face, improving the overall structural appearance of your face. Jaw implants, used to increase the width of the lower third of your face, and cheek implants, used to increase the projection of your cheekbones, can also give you a more proportional, youthful appearance.

Chin implants are made of solid, biocompatible materials and specially formed to enhance or augment the physical structure of your face. Ross A. Clevens, MD, FACS, and Renata Khelemsky, MD, have years of experience helping patients select the right type and size of implant. The procedure is often performed in conjunction with rhinoplasty, facelift, and Clevens Face and Body Specialists' signature Laser-Assisted Weekend Neck Lift to dramatically improve facial harmony.

Chin Implant Benefits

Results that last a lifetime (but are easily removable, too)

Get the beautiful facial structure you want while creating a youthful appearance, too. Facial implants, including chin, jaw, and cheek implants, can help you add facial definition and enhance facial highlights, all while creating balance. Your chin can become a distinct facial feature, rather than one that disappears into your neck or makes your other features, like your nose or overbite, more pronounced. And you can get the prominent cheekbones and strong jawline you want.

Your solid silicone implant is designed to last a lifetime. It is proven to be safe, does not reabsorb, and does not leak. But, rest assured, these implants are easily removable if your goals change later in life.

Chin Implant Recovery

Go home immediately after surgery.

Complications from chin implants are very uncommon and most patients return to everyday activities within a week. To promote healing, you’ll need to sleep with your face up and your head elevated for the first week or two after surgery. You’ll get the full sense of your long-term results after fullness completely subsides, within a month or two.

If you ever want to remove your chin implant, it can be removed in 10 to 15 minutes under local anesthesia.
