FEMALE CHIN IMPLANT & JAWLINE CONTOURING
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:
- Weak and receding chin
- Permanent double chin
- Poorly defined jaw
- Asymmetrical facial profile
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS?
Facial implants can be a permanent solution to a receding chin, but it is important to find a highly skilled plastic surgeon with an artistic eye to help you achieve long-lasting results that fulfill your surgery goals.
- Stronger, more prominent chin
- Better jawline contour
- Enhanced facial profile
- Increased overall symmetry
- Improved self-confidence

CHIN IMPLANT PROCEDURE
Dr. Sedgh’s comprehensive knowledge of facial anatomy and advanced surgical techniques make him uniquely qualified to perform chin augmentation with exceptional care and precision. During the surgery, Dr. Sedgh inserts a biocompatible implant through a small incision, either inside the mouth (intraoral approach) or just below the chin (submental approach). He then carefully secures the implant to achieve a balanced, natural result that enhances chin projection and facial symmetry.
The procedure generally takes about one to two hours and can be performed under local anesthesia, IV sedation, or general anesthesia, depending on your preferences and health history.
Procedure Highlights:
- Carefully chosen implant for personalized results
- Precise placement of the implant for optimal contour
- Small, well-concealed incision for minimal scarring
