Elevate Your Chin Profile &
Restore Facial Harmony
Chin augmentation is a cosmetic procedure designed to enhance the contours of the chin, creating a more balanced and harmonious facial appearance. Whether you are seeking a stronger jawline or aiming to address a receding chin, this procedure can help you achieve your desired profile. Dr. Mehta offers both non-surgical options, involving dermal fillers for subtle improvements, and surgical solutions, including implant placement. Tailored to individual preferences, chin augmentation enhances overall facial proportions.
Chin Augmentation Corrects:
- Receding chin structure
- Lack of facial symmetry
- Weak jawline definition
- Imbalance between chin and other facial features
NON-SURGICAL CHIN AUGMENTATION: DERMAL FILLERS
Dermal fillers offer a non-invasive approach to undergoing a chin augmentation in Manhattan. Composed of safe, biocompatible substances, these fillers are skillfully injected by Dr. Mehta to enhance chin contours. By carefully sculpting and adding volume, dermal fillers restore balance and definition to the chin area. The procedure is minimally invasive, requires little to no downtime, and provides a natural-looking outcome, making it suitable for those seeking subtle yet transformative enhancements.
How Dermal Fillers Enhance The Chin
Hyaluronic acid (HA) dermal fillers leverage the natural moisture-retaining properties of HA, a sugar molecule found in the skin. When injected beneath the skin’s surface, HA attracts water molecules, volumizing the area and restoring depleted tissue. Dr. Mehta carefully injects the chosen fillers into targeted facial tissues around the chin and jawline to help you achieve a chiseled, contoured appearance. The results last 6 to 18 months, depending on the filler, following which you need additional treatments.

THE RECOVERY PROCESS
Following your chin augmentation in Manhattan, you can expect mild side effects like temporary swelling or bruising. These subside within a few days. You can resume most of your daily activities immediately, but avoid strenuous workouts and excessive sun exposure for a few days to ensure optimal results. You can see visible improvements immediately after the treatment, with continued improvements for up to 2 weeks as the side effects diminish. The final results last 6 to 18 months, depending on the chosen fillers and individual factors.
Surgical Chin Augmentation: Chin Implants
For those seeking more dramatic and permanent results, Dr. Mehta offers surgical chin augmentation with chin implants. This procedure involves the placement of custom-designed implants to enhance chin projection and definition. Dr. Mehta uses advanced techniques to ensure precise implant positioning for optimal facial harmony. A chin augmentation in Manhattan is an ideal option for individuals desiring substantial chin enhancement and are willing to undergo a carefully planned surgical procedure.
How Chin Implant Surgery Is Performed
Chin implant surgery is usually performed under general or local anesthesia. Under anesthesia, a discreet incision is made beneath the chin or within the mouth. A carefully chosen implant is then placed onto the chin bone. This augmentation enhances chin projection and balances facial features. The incision is closed, resulting in natural-looking contours. Dr. Mehta’s surgical expertise ensures aesthetic precision and patient safety throughout the procedure.
Benefits Of Surgical Chin Augmentation:
- Dramatic and permanent enhancement
- Precise customization with implants
- Potential for comprehensive facial balance
- Long-lasting results
- Ideal for significant chin transformation
The Recovery Process
Following your chin implant procedure with Dr. Mehta, expect temporary side effects like swelling and discomfort. These effects gradually diminish within a few weeks. Plan for around 7-10 days of initial downtime, during which you’ll need to avoid strenuous activities. Dr. Mehta will provide personalized aftercare instructions, including proper wound care. While results become noticeable as swelling subsides, the full outcome of your chin augmentation in Manhattan typically emerges within a few months. You can enjoy your refined chin profile for years to come.
Chin Augmentation FAQs
How long does chin augmentation surgery typically take?
Chin augmentation surgery typically takes around one to two hours to complete. However, the exact duration may vary depending on the specific technique used, the complexity of the procedure, and whether additional surgeries are being performed simultaneously.
Will chin augmentation affect my bite or jaw function?
Chin augmentation enhances the appearance of the chin and jawline without affecting bite or jaw function. The procedure focuses on altering the structure of the chin bone or adding implants to achieve desired aesthetic results while preserving normal jaw function.
How soon can I return to work or normal activities after chin augmentation?
Most patients can resume normal activities, including work, within one to two weeks following chin augmentation. However, it’s essential to follow post-operative care instructions provided by your plastic surgeon to ensure proper healing and minimize the risk of complications.
