Enhance Your Profile With Chin Augmentation Surgery
An unbalanced or recessed chin can affect how your entire face is perceived. It may make the nose appear larger and the neck less defined.
It can also impact how your smile appears and cause a weaker jawline or the appearance of submental fullness (double chin), even in individuals who maintain a healthy weight.
Dr. Ivan Wayne will help correct these imperfections, allowing your facial features, including your smile, to appear more vibrant and natural.

What Is Chin Implant Surgery?
Chin implant surgery is a cosmetic procedure that enhances the shape and size of the chin to improve facial balance.
A custom-fit implant made from medical-grade silicone or other biocompatible materials is often placed over the existing chin bone to enhance its structure. These implants are designed to feel natural and integrate with your facial anatomy.
The procedure is usually performed under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia to minimize discomfort.
Benefits of Chin Augmentation
Here is how a chin augmentation procedure can help you achieve your aesthetic goals:
Improves Facial Harmony
The procedure enhances the shape of the chin and ensures the lower face complements other facial features such as the nose, cheeks, and forehead. This balance creates a natural-looking appearance.
Stronger Jawline
Chin implants can add structure and strength to the jawline and make it appear more sculpted.
Reduces Double Chin
When the chin is weak or recessed, the tissues may sag or gather beneath the jaw, creating unwanted fullness. The procedure tightens and lifts the area, reducing excess skin or fat that contributes to the double chin look.
Long-Lasting Enhancement
Unlike temporary fillers, which require regular touch-ups, implants deliver stable, long-term results.
Customizable Results
Chin implants come in various shapes and sizes. This allows our chin augmentation surgeon to tailor the procedure to your facial structure and aesthetic goals.
Who Is a Good Candidate for Chin Implant Surgery?
Even though a chin implant surgery can correct a recessed or undefined chin, it may not be ideal for everyone.
This procedure is recommended for those who:
- Have a naturally weak or recessed chin
- Have good health with no untreated dental or skeletal issues
- Are seeking a permanent solution rather than temporary fillers
- Want to enhance facial balance or improve their profile
- Have realistic expectations
Dr. Wayne will evaluate your facial anatomy and discuss your aesthetic goals. This will help us determine whether a chin augmentation is right for you.

Before surgery, Dr. Wayne will listen to your concerns, examine your chin, and design a custom treatment plan. He uses advanced imaging tools to simulate the outcome so you can know what to expect post-surgery.
All procedures are performed at NW Surgical Hospital, a well-equipped and fully certified facility. This ensures patient safety and comfort. Our team will also provide aftercare support to ensure smooth healing and recovery.
The Chin Augmentation Procedure: What to Expect
We will first administer anesthesia to numb the area. Dr. Wayne will then make incisions inside the mouth or just beneath the chin. This allows him to access the chin area and create space for an implant.
A custom-fitted implant is placed over the chin bone to achieve a more defined and balanced lower face. Sometimes, if additional enhancement is needed, we may reshape or reposition the chin bone and place the implant to ensure it fits well.
The procedure can take 60–90 minutes. The best part is that it can be combined with other facial surgeries like rhinoplasty or neck liposuction to achieve optimal balance. Most patients return to daily activities within a week and enjoy full results after 3 months as swelling subsides and the implant settles into place.

Chin Augmentation FAQs
Chin implant surgery is a cosmetic procedure that improves the size, shape, and projection of the chin. It’s ideal for individuals who feel their chin is recessed or lacks definition. During the procedure, we will place a custom-shaped implant over the existing chin bone to add structure and volume. This will help enhance the facial features and create a stronger and more defined jawline.

After surgery, patients experience mild to moderate swelling, tightness, and some bruising around the chin and lower face. These symptoms improve within the first week, with most swellings subsiding after 2 to 3 weeks. You may return to work or your daily routines within 5 to 7 days.
We advised our patients to keep their heads elevated, follow a soft food diet for a few days, and avoid strenuous activity for about a week.
Final results will become more noticeable once the swelling subsides and the implant settles. This may take about 3 months.
No. Our chin implant surgery leaves little to no visible scarring. Dr. Wayne will make incisions under the chin or inside the mouth.
The incisions under the chin are usually small and discreet, blending well into the skin’s natural folds. Over time, any external scar will fade and become barely noticeable. If the incision is made inside the mouth, there won’t be visible external scars.
A chin augmentation procedure enhances the structure of the chin to improve facial balance. A chin implant is one of the techniques used to achieve this. It involves placing an implant over the chin bone to increase definition and projection.
Other chin augmentation procedures include dermal fillers and sliding genioplasty. During consultation, our chin augmentation surgeon will recommend the best option based on your goals, anatomy, and desired results.
The two techniques differ in material used, longevity, and level of enhancement. Chin fillers involve injecting dermal fillers into the chin to add volume or improve contour. It has minimal downtime, and results can last 6 to 18 months, depending on the product used. Fillers are ideal for those seeking temporary or minor adjustments.
Chin implants, on the other hand, are a surgical and permanent solution. Our chin implant surgeon will place a biocompatible implant over the chin bone to create long-lasting results.
Yes. A chin augmentation can be combined with other facial procedures to create more balanced results.
For instance, we can combine a chin augmentation with neck liposuction or a neck lift, especially if there is excess fat or loose skin under the chin. This will enhance definition along the jawline and create a smoother transition from the face to the neck.
In some cases, cheek augmentation may also be included to address additional concerns such as mid-face volume loss or sagging skin.
