Facial Sculpting Before & After Case 272

A weak chin can make the neck appear full or fat. Plastic surgery of the chin can help improve facial proportions not only to make a chin larger, but also to help create a more balanced face and neck.

Chin surgery is primarily performed with a silicone implant. Many plastic surgeons perform chin augmentation surgery via an incision under the chin. 

This Washington DC gentleman researched chin augmentation options. He reported that he disliked the appearance of a weak and double chin. He consulted with Dr. Chaboki to review pros and cons of plastic surgery, which included computer simulation and "trying" a variety of implant sizes in the office. After photographs demonstrate results several weeks after chin augmentation with an extra large silicone implant. The chin, jawline, and neck are more defined. He is happy with his natural results.

No neck fat reduction or liposuction was performed in this case. Patients who want to further enhance the neck can perform chin liposuction and/or neck lift at the same time as chin augmentation.
