Chin Implant Surgery
Redefine Your Jawline With a Chin Implant
The chin is one of the face’s defining features. It can be strong, extending into the jawline, petite, or slightly pointed. The chin can also be a source of embarrassment for those whose genetics have given them a receding or “weak” chin.
Chin implants can balance this important aspect of the face with the jawline, mouth, and nose.
