How Long Do Chin Implants Last?


Chin augmentation enhances the appearance of the chin, bringing harmony to the facial features. A chin implant augments the chin’s size and projection. These safe, long-lasting implants provide natural-looking results that give you a stronger, more balanced profile. Individuals with a weak or small chin can benefit from this procedure. 

What is a Chin Implant?

A chin implant is made of silicone and placed in the chin to add volume and projection. The implant is customized to fit the patient’s facial structure and desired results, creating a natural-looking appearance. Chin implants come in various sizes and shapes, allowing Dr. Sozer to tailor the implant to your unique facial features.

What Procedures Can I Have With a Chin Implant?

Chin implants can be performed as a standalone procedure or with other facial surgeries, such as rhinoplasty, facelift, or neck lift. A chin implant may be necessary for you to enjoy the full benefits of another procedure.
