What is Chin Augmentation?
Chin augmentation, or mentoplasty, is a surgical procedure designed to enhance a weak or recessed chin by adding projection and definition. The procedure uses biocompatible chin implants or, in some cases, bone advancement techniques to create a stronger, more balanced facial profile. A well-proportioned chin dramatically improves facial harmony and can make the nose appear smaller and the jawline more defined.
Chin augmentation is often combined with rhinoplasty or neck liposuction for comprehensive facial balance. The procedure creates permanent, natural-looking results that enhance your existing features without appearing artificial.
