Chin Augmentation

Los Angeles Chin Augmentation

The chin plays a crucial role in the balance and overall aesthetics of your face. A weak or receding chin can affect the appearance of your jawline and neck, and a less defined or shorter chin may make double chins more prominent with age. Whether you’re aiming to strengthen your jawline or enhance facial definition, chin augmentation—also known as chin implants—can be a highly effective solution.

Chin augmentation is a rapidly growing facial cosmetic procedure. In fact, the American Society of Plastic Surgeons reports a 71% increase in chin implants between 2010 and 2011. At Moein Surgical Arts, Dr. Babak Moein offers expert care to help you achieve a well-balanced, naturally enhanced appearance.

Chin Augmentation Options

Dr. Moein understands that each patient’s facial structure and goals are unique. While men often desire a more prominent, angular chin, women may prefer a softer, more delicate profile. Dr. Moein listens carefully to your goals to design a customized treatment plan that aligns with your ideal look.

Explore the following chin augmentation techniques available at Moein Surgical Arts:

Chin Augmentation with Implants

Chin implants offer a permanent and effective solution to reshape and enhance your chin. Dr. Moein places the implant through a small incision near the mouth, then closes the area with sutures.

Recovery Tips:

• Expect some swelling and bruising post-procedure.
• Stick to a liquid diet for the first 24 hours, then gradually transition to soft foods.
• Most patients return to normal activities within one week.

Dr. Moein also specializes in facial implants for the cheeks, jaw, temples, and neck. Visit our Facial Implants page to learn more.

Chin Augmentation with Fat Grafting

Fat grafting offers a more natural, minimally invasive alternative to implants. It’s ideal for patients wanting long-term results without permanent implants.

How It Works:

• Fat is harvested via liposuction from areas like the abdomen or hips.
• The fat is purified and injected into the chin to sculpt and volumize.

Recovery Tips:

• Expect some bruising around the chin and donor areas.
• Limit physical activity for at least one week to allow proper healing.

Chin Augmentation with Injectable Fillers

Injectable fillers offer a non-surgical, temporary option for those who want to try chin enhancement without a long-term commitment.

Benefits:

• Instant results with no downtime.
• Ideal for trying out a new look before considering more permanent options.

Results Duration: 4 to 6 months
Recovery: Minimal bruising possible; most resume daily activities right away.
