About Chin Contouring

Overview

Chin contouring involves enhancing or reshaping the chin to create a more balanced facial profile. This process can utilize different techniques, both surgical and non-surgical.

Benefits

Chin augmentation offers several advantages, including enhancing the facial profile and creating a more attractive jaw shape. It can also reduce the appearance of a double chin and help balance the nose and chin for overall facial harmony. A well balanced chin helps balance your smile giving a more harmonized look.

  • Genetics: Some individuals may naturally have a weak or recessed chin due to genetic factors.
  • Aging: The chin area may lose volume as we age, leading to sagging or a less defined jawline.
  • Trauma or injury: Accidents or injuries to the chin area can result in deformities or asymmetry.
  • Weight fluctuations: Significant weight gain or loss can affect the appearance of the chin, resulting in excess skin or a double chin.
What to Expect
  • Non-Surgical Options: Chin fillers are dermal fillers, which can add volume and enhance the shape of the chin.
  • Kybella: This FDA-approved injectable treatment helps reduce submental fat (double chin) by destroying fat cells. 
  • Ultherapy or Radiofrequency skin tightening: This non-invasive procedure uses ultrasound or radiofrequency energy to lift and tighten the skin under the chin, providing a more defined jawline. 
  • Surgical options:
    • Genioplasty: This procedure involves reshaping the chin by either augmenting it with implants or repositioning the bone through osteotomy.
    • Liposuction: When excess fat is the primary concern, chin liposuction can remove the excess fat deposits, resulting in a more sculpted chin.
    • Neck lift: Sometimes, a combination of chin contouring and neck lift surgery can address sagging skin and muscle laxity in the jaw and neck area.
    • NeckTite and FaceTite: minimally invasive procedure to tighten skin and spot reduce fatty areas.
Recovery

The duration of recovery will depend on the specific procedure chosen by the individual. Each procedure has its own unique recovery protocol which can be found in detail under the specific procedure of interest.
