Before & After Results
Who is Good Candidate For Chin Augmentation?
The success and safety of your cheek and chin reshaping depend on your suitability, which is assessed during the consultation. Each treatment is customized to meet individual expectations. The doctor will discuss your concerns, explain the procedure’s potential outcomes, and determine the best approach for enhancing your facial features. For those with a small chin, weak jawline, or lack of facial contour, chin and cheek augmentation can improve your profile, enhance symmetry, and restore balance. It can also address issues like submental fat or a weak chin that affects self-image, especially in men. This procedure is ideal for those with facial asymmetry or congenital defects and is typically performed once physical maturity is reached (late teens). Additionally, chin and cheek augmentation can often be combined with rhinoplasty for a more balanced facial aesthetic.
Types of Cheek & Chin Reshaping Surgery
Chin Surgery
Chin augmentation (correction) typically takes between 30 minutes to an hour. The surgeon selects the right implant size and shape to enhance your appearance, then inserts it into a pocket over the jawbone. The incision is usually made either inside the mouth (below the lower lip) or just under the chin. After surgery, the chin is typically taped to reduce swelling and discomfort. Sutures are removed after 5-7 days, or they may dissolve if an intra-oral incision is used.
Lower-Jaw Surgery
This procedure, which involves inserting a jaw implant, usually takes 1 to 2 hours. The implant is placed through an internal incision made at the side of the lower lip. Stitches used are self-dissolving, and the healing process involves minimal external scarring.
Recovery from Chin Surgery
Swelling and discomfort are common after chin surgery and may last for several days. Some difficulty with smiling and talking is normal. You may also experience some bruising around the chin and neck area. Follow your surgeon’s post-surgery instructions regarding eating and dental care.
Recovery from Jaw Surgery
Immediately after surgery, significant swelling is common, peaking within 24-48 hours. Although swelling decreases in the following days, it may persist for weeks, making final results take time to show. You will need to follow dietary restrictions and avoid certain activities during recovery. It may take several days or even weeks to speak, smile, or move your mouth normally, and your surgeon will guide you on oral hygiene during the recovery period.
Cheek Surgery
Cheek implant surgery typically takes 30 to 45 minutes. It is often performed alongside other cosmetic procedures, such as forehead lifts, facelifts, or eyelid surgery. In these cases, the implants are inserted through the same incisions made for the other procedures. If the cheek implants are done alone, the incision is usually made either on the lower eyelid or inside the upper lip to create a pocket for the implant. After the surgery, a dressing will be applied to reduce discomfort and swelling. The severity and duration of side effects may vary, especially if other procedures were performed during the same surgery.
Seek Advice from Your Plastic Surgeon
As part of your surgery preparation, be sure to ask your doctor whether you will be able to drive yourself home or if you will need transportation after the procedure. Also, inquire if you should refrain from eating or drinking the night before surgery. Inform your doctor about any medications you take regularly, including aspirin or similar medications, and ask whether you need to stop them prior to surgery. Your plastic surgeon may prescribe antibiotics before and after the procedure to prevent infection. These important details will be discussed during your pre-operative consultation.
Recovery After Chin Reshaping and Augmentation
After your procedure, bandages or dressings may be applied to keep the surgical area clean and support the position of the reconstructed bone or implant. It is important to refrain from smoking and drinking alcohol for 2 to 3 weeks before and after the surgery. Additionally, avoid strenuous activities, gym workouts, and contact sports for about 4 weeks. You may be prescribed a short course of antibiotics and pain medication if needed. You can usually return to light activities, including work, within 5 to 7 days after the procedure.
During recovery, you will receive specific instructions on how to care for the surgical site, manage medications, and prevent infection. Follow these guidelines closely to ensure optimal healing and recovery.
It is essential to strictly follow the post-operative care instructions provided by your plastic surgeon. You may experience dietary restrictions and need to modify your routine activities during recovery. Post-operative care instructions can vary, particularly if the implant surgery was combined with other procedures. Most patients experience reduced mouth and lip movement for a period after surgery. Typically, stitches used to close incisions inside the mouth dissolve within 10 days.
Where Will Your Surgery Be Performed?
Plastic surgeries can be performed at an outpatient hospital facility, office-based facility, or a freestanding surgical center. In some cases, you may need to stay overnight after the procedure. Your doctor will evaluate your post-surgery needs and advise you on the best course of action based on your overall health and whether other cosmetic procedures were performed during the same surgery.
Getting Back to Normal
While you’ll likely feel and look better in a short period following facial surgery, certain activities must be restricted during your recovery. Avoid any activities that might cause your face to be bumped or jarred for several weeks. Be sure to check with your plastic surgeon about which activities you should avoid during recovery.
