Female chin implant surgery is a cosmetic procedure performed to improve the appearance and shape of the chin in such a way that retains or enhances the innate femininity of the face. It involves the use of medical-grade facial implants to smoothen and sculpt the chin into a more desirable contour and projection that brings optimum harmony and balance to the patient’s overall facial profile.

BEFORE & AFTER

Patients who undergo this procedure can expect a smaller, more attractive, and ultimately more feminine chin that is symmetrical with the nose, forehead, and the rest of the face.

JAWLINE CONTOURING & CHIN AUGMENTATION

REASONS TO UNDERGO THIS PROCEDURE

Chin implant surgery is one of the most commonly requested procedures by both male and female patients. However, due to the physiological differences between male and female faces, there are now gender-specific cosmetic procedures for chin surgery.

Many female patients wish to soften their strong jawlines and achieve a smaller, pointier chin that will give them a more balanced and feminine facial appearance. The procedure can also address the following issues:

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS?

For a successful female chin implant surgery, it is best to seek a double board-certified plastic surgeon.

As a doctor with precise surgical skills and an artistic eye, Dr. Sedgh delivers beautiful, natural-looking results that include the following benefits:

FEMALE CHIN IMPLANT PROCEDURE

Dr. Sedgh strongly believes in designing a tailor-fit procedure for each patient to ensure long-lasting results that appear as natural as possible, with optimum balance and harmony with the rest of the face. This is because, unlike other chin augmentation procedures, implant surgery yields permanent results. If optimal results are achieved, there should be no need for revision or replacement, which can be the case when the implant is not placed in the right position or is not the right size.

Chin implant procedures are usually performed under local anesthesia or mild sedation, but you can discuss other anesthetic options with Dr. Sedgh prior to the procedure. Once you have been prepped for surgery, the doctor will begin by creating an incision inside the mouth (between the lower lip and gum) or in an inconspicuous area under the chin.

He will then insert the implant and adjust it to the most optimum position that satisfies the desired outcome. In certain cases, the implant may be fixed in place with sutures or metal plates and screws to avoid shifting. Typically, a chin implant surgery lasts an hour or so, depending on your case. They can be done in conjunction with a face lift, rhinoplasty, and neck lift to ensure a more balanced overall facial appearance.

RECOVERY

Female chin implant surgery is normally an outpatient procedure, with minimal downtime and a fairly easy recovery. After the procedure, it is advisable for patients to take at least a week off from work. Strenuous activity and contact sports should also be avoided for at least a month.

Expected side effects may include itching and swelling, but these can be managed effectively with diligent adherence to all aftercare instructions and by taking the prescribed medications.

A successful chin implant surgery does not end after the procedure has been performed. The postoperative stage is also critical in ensuring excellent results that will stand the test of time, which is why Dr. Sedgh makes it a point to remain in contact with his patients throughout the entire recovery period.

Constant monitoring is essential to a full and speedy recovery, so expect regular follow-up appointments with the doctor during the next few months up to a year.
