Chin Augmentation

Achieve a More Flattering Chin

A chin that is too small or too large can negatively affect the proportion of the face and throw off facial harmony altogether. This can cause feelings of Insecurity and self-consciousness which can contribute to very low self-esteem. However, with chin augmentation surgery (genioplasty), your chin can be altered to a shape that is both flattering and complementary to your existing profile.  

This can be achieved with implants or chin reduction surgery. Whichever route you choose, board-certified Plastic Surgeon Dr. Frank L. Stile can create a custom treatment plan that addresses your specific concerns. At Stile Aesthetics in Las Vegas, NV, we want to educate and prepare our patients as much as possible.  

Therefore, we conduct a thorough examination and present before and after photos and implant types to patients who are interested in undergoing this procedure. Chin augmentation is often combined with other facial surgeries, such as a facelift or rhinoplasty.

What is a Chin Augmentation?

A patient will receive general anesthesia during chin augmentation surgery. This surgery is performed as an outpatient procedure at our accredited surgical facility – Premium Surgical Services Center. Dr. Stile will make a small incision on either the inside of the mouth or under the chin. An implant, which is made of biocompatible, medical-grade materials, will be placed carefully through the incision into a precisely created space.  

After the implant is placed, the incision will be closed. If the incision was made in the mouth, the patient will have no visible scarring. For incisions under the chin, the scar will be inconspicuous and is minimally detectable. The entiresurgery takes approximately one hour to complete.
