If your chin feels too small, sits too far back, or has a layer of fat that makes you feel self-conscious, cosmetic chin surgery can help you achieve a more harmonious and balanced facial appearance. Chin augmentation defines the contours of your chin, adding definition and natural symmetry to your face.
Maryland’s Top Facial Plastic Surgeon, Sheilah A. Lynch, is a board-plastic surgeon who specializes in chin surgery in Chevy Chase & Easton, Maryland. Dr. Lynch can help create greater strength to your chin area, reduce the appearance of a double chin, improve proportions as well as reverse the effects of age related jowling. She understands that your face is often the most integral part of her patients confidence.
Dr. Lynch has perfected her chin augmentation techniques to give you the best results you have always wanted.
If you have a small or receding chin, you may be a candidate for chin augmentation. Chin augmentation may balance your profile by augmenting the deficient chin area and giving more balance to the face. A chin that looks too small in comparison with other facial features may possibly make the nose appear longer or too large for the face. Many times, the consultation for Rhinoplasty will reveal the need for a chin implant.
If the chin is deficient, the neck ages much faster because there is less support for the excess skin that falls from the face into the neck because of gravity. Chin Implants are often placed at the time of neck liposuction or along with a neck muscle tightening procedure, platysmaplasty.
The best result is an improved facial and neck profile. After chin augmentation, you can expect a more attractive jawline that creates a better balance between the chin and your other facial features.
Whatever your reason is, thank you for considering our practice and we would love to help you.
Our patients receive chin implants for different reasons, such as improving the definition in their lower face. Some need to have a chin implant to reconstruct their chin after an accident or trauma. Others are concerned about their small or recessed chin.
A recessed chin is when your chin doesn’t stick out far enough from your face. From the side, your chin isn’t in proportion with the lines of your forehead, nose and other features.
Patients who’ve had trauma to their face, such as a facial fracture or tumor removal, might also consider and benefit from a chin implant.
During this surgery, Dr. Lynch will place a small facial implant beneath your muscle to add more volume to your chin. This procedure only requires one small incision placed under your chin, as the implant is sutured under the skin. Once the chin implant is secured, it will not move. It is also customized to fit your bone structure to create a natural appearance to your face. Chin implants are safe for the body and are created to fit your individual anatomy.
Chin implant surgery are intended to be subtle change. The purpose is to balance out your lower facial features. After chin implant surgery, your chin will have better symmetry with the rest of your face.
Your chin is mainly responsible for balancing your face and neck. Culturally, men are considered more handsome when they have a stronger jawline. Women are thought more beautiful when their chins are smaller and more V-shaped. Creating the right balance for the chin is important for both male and female patients.
Chin implant surgery has a quick recovery period compared to other facial surgeries. You will likely only require pain medications for a few days after surgery, but the pain is minimal. Most of the bruising and swelling will be fade after 4-5 days. It will be completely gone after a few weeks.
During the first few weeks, you will have activity restrictions to not cause an issues with your new chin. You will wear a head garment continuously for the first 7 days after your surgery and then just at night for 1 week later.
Unlike breast implants (augmentation), a chin implant will not need to be replaced. It is solid, and nothing can leak from it. Your chin implant is there for a lifetime.
Chin and Jawline Facial Balancing slims, reshapes, and refines your chin and jawline to give you a more pronounced look and feel. It provides more balanced features, creating more separation between your chin, jawline, and neck.
The main difference between chin cosmetic filler and chin implant surgery is how long the results last. Chin filler will last between 8-12 months depending on the product and your natural reabsorption rate. Chin augmentation surgery uses an implant to create a permanently defined lower facial structure. Chin filler is a great starting point for patients to try out how much volume they would like in that area and visualize what their augmented chin could look like with surgery.
