Chin Implant Wilmington, NY | Riger Sica, DO

Understanding Chin Implant Procedures

The shape and position of the chin can dramatically influence overall facial aesthetics. A subtle modification in chin size, shape, and position can significantly improve facial balance and proportion. Patients with small or recessed chins may find that their facial profile appears disproportionate.

Facial Harmony through Precise Augmentation

Chin implant surgery offers a strategic approach to facial enhancement. The procedure involves carefully inserting a biocompatible implant to augment the existing bone structure, creating a more balanced and harmonious facial profile.

Ideal Candidates for Chin Augmentation

• Individuals with a small or receding chin
• Patients seeking to improve facial proportions
• Those wanting to balance facial features
• Individuals with concerns about nose or mouth area prominence

Procedure Considerations

During the consultation, a comprehensive facial examination will be conducted to assess individual needs. The surgical approach is customized to each patient's unique facial structure and aesthetic goals.

Complementary Procedures

Chin augmentation can be combined with other facial procedures such as rhinoplasty, neck liposuction, or facelift to achieve comprehensive facial rejuvenation. The specific combination will be discussed during the initial consultation.

Surgical Process

The procedure typically involves a small, well-concealed incision under the chin. An implant made of soft, flexible, biocompatible material is carefully positioned to enhance facial contours. The entire process usually takes one to two hours.

Recovery and Expectations

Most patients experience minimal discomfort and can return to work within 4 days. Light exercise can typically be resumed after two weeks. Some temporary bruising and swelling are normal and will subside during the healing process.
