Los Angeles Chin Implant | West Hollywood Chin Contouring Surgery

BEFORE & AFTER

This procedure is accomplished by implanting a biologically-compatible solid material into the chin. This helps reshape the area and achieve increased projection, which should bring more balance to the face. Patients who undergo this surgery can expect a more prominent chin and improved facial symmetry, which results in a more aesthetically pleasing appearance.

REASONS TO UNDERGO THIS PROCEDURE

The chin is an important facial feature that often gets overlooked. In reality, it can greatly impact the balance and aesthetic quality of a person’s facial appearance. A weak chin is especially noticeable in men, as a strong chin and jawline is considered an inherently masculine facial trait. People usually get chin implants to enhance a less prominent chin that “disappears” into the neck. Here are other issues that a chin implant can help address:

CHIN IMPLANT PROCEDURE

As a facial plastic surgeon with an extensive background in head and neck surgery, Dr. Sedgh is highly familiar with the anatomy of the human face and with the many advanced surgical techniques used in both cosmetic and reconstructive procedures. This makes him uniquely equipped to safely deliver the patient’s desired chin shape and projection while maintaining a natural yet enhanced look.

The procedure may be performed under local anesthesia, IV sedation, or general anesthesia, depending on what you have agreed upon during prior consultations. Once the area is sufficiently numbed, Dr. Sedgh will create an incision—either inside the lower lip (intraoral approach) or beneath your chin (submental approach)—through which he will carefully insert the implant.

To ensure the quality and longevity of the results, Dr. Sedgh will use the most suitable type of implant for your specific needs. As for the location of the implant, Dr. Sedgh will take several factors into account to ensure the most optimum placement. He will then secure the implant to the chin bone with screws or sutures before carefully and strategically closing the incisions. A simple chin implant procedure takes approximately 1 to 2 hours.

RECOVERY

Chin implant surgery is a quick and simple outpatient procedure. The recovery period is fairly quick, with downtime lasting no more than seven days. Minimal bruising and swelling can be expected during the first few weeks, but patients should be able to return to work in one week.

As always, strict adherence to the prescribed aftercare instructions is strongly advised to help ensure a healthy and comfortable recovery. Dr. Sedgh takes pride in providing his patients with highly attentive, specially individualized care. He believes that this is key to a successful recovery, which is why he strives to remain in close contact with patients throughout the entire postoperative process.

In addition to making himself available for all questions and concerns, he will also personally follow your healing progress through regularly scheduled follow-up meetings starting from the first post-surgery day up to the last post-op appointment.
