A small incision is made inside the mouth or beneath the chin, designed to minimize visible scarring.
A custom-fitted implant is positioned over the chin bone, or the bone is repositioned to achieve the desired projection and contour.

Good to Know
Chin implants offer permanent results, maintaining their shape and structure over time. Genioplasty also provides lifelong enhancement, as it involves repositioning the natural bone.
Incisions are usually made inside the mouth or under the chin, leaving minimal visible scarring. Any external scars are small and strategically placed, fading and blending naturally over time.
Most patients experience mild discomfort after surgery, managed with pain medication and cold compresses. Swelling and tenderness typically subside within the first week or two.
Yes, chin augmentation is often paired with rhinoplasty or neck liposuction to enhance facial balance, creating more defined, harmonious contours with a single recovery period.
