Chin Augmentation Before & After Case 51

Virginia patients often ask plastic surgeons to modify facial features, such as facial sculpting with silicone implants to enhance the cheeks or chin. During office consultations, facial plastic surgeons assess the entire face while focusing on the specific facial area of concern to the patient. Virginia cosmetic surgery patients with a small chin may benefit from augmentation to make the jaw larger. Chin and jaw augmentation may be performed with silicone implants or bone surgery. A strong, defined chin and jaw line are considered more masculine and may be associated with greater confidence and leadership.

This Virginia patient had always viewed his jaw and chin as too small for his face and considered plastic surgery to augment his lower face. He consulted with facial cosmetic surgeon Dr. Chaboki to review plastic surgery options. Computer simulation imaging provided him insight on potential results with silicone implant surgery prior to the actual procedure. Via small incisions, he underwent facial sculpting of the lower face with chin and jaw angle implants. He was back to work within days. His face is now more balanced and square, which enhances his naturally masculine features.
