This incredible surgical procedure is designed to reshape and enhance the size of your chin, giving you the confidence and facial harmony you deserve.
Chin augmentation is a surgical procedure designed to reshape or enhance the size of the chin. This can be achieved by either inserting an implant or by repositioning and reshaping the jaw bones. By utilizing a custom implant or modifying the lower jaw bone, a chin augmentation procedure aims to refine and enhance the shape and size of the chin. Typically, this procedure is performed to address an underprojected chin. Moreover, chin augmentation through plastic surgery provides a permanent solution for concerns related to chin size and shape. It is worth noting that chin augmentation can be performed concurrently with a neck or facelift procedure to enhance the definition of the jawline. During an initial consultation, Dr. Rani will conduct a comprehensive medical assessment and evaluate the individual’s mental and emotional readiness for the surgery. It is vital to have a positive attitude and realistic expectations as they significantly contribute to the success of the procedure.
