What Is a Chin Implant Procedure?
A Chin Implant procedure involves carefully placing a biocompatible implant over the chin bone to enhance projection, shape, and overall facial symmetry. The implant can be made of silicone, porous polyethylene, or other safe synthetic materials, tailored to the patient’s anatomy. The surgery is typically performed through a small incision either inside the mouth (intraoral) or beneath the chin (submental), leaving minimal or no visible scarring. This procedure is usually completed within 45–90 minutes, depending on the technique and whether it is combined with other procedures such as rhinoplasty or jawline contouring. Patients benefit from quick recovery times, immediate enhancement in chin projection, and subtle yet impactful improvements in their overall facial appearance.
