Expectations
Chin augmentation is a cosmetic procedure that enhances the appearance of your chin. Dr. Johnson may choose to inject fat or insert an implant to reshape your jaw and improve the look of your profile. She personalizes each chin augmentation procedure to ensure desirable results.
How is a Chin Augmentation Performed?
Step 1: Consultation
Dr. Johnson discusses your medical history and desired results before you undergo chin augmentation. She examines your chin, jaw, and face and uses in office photos to discuss if the treatment is right for you. She may combine chin augmentation with other aesthetic treatments to achieve the facial contours you long for.
Step 2: Procedure
During chin augmentation surgery, you receive numbing medicine and a sedative to relax you or general anesthesia to make you fall asleep. Depending on the type of chin augmentation selected, Dr. Johnson may either harvest fat to augment the chin or she will make a small incision, restructure tissues as needed, and place an implant underneath skin and muscle tissues. She then secures the implant in place and closes your incisions. If you’re a candidate for a rhinoplasty (nose job), Dr. Johnson can perform this procedure at the same time as chin augmentation.
Step 3: Recovery
After your procedure, you may have some temporary bruising, redness, swelling, or tenderness. Take medicines as directed, keep the treatment area clean, and get plenty of rest. It is recommended to follow a liquid diet for 1-2 days after the procedure. You may also need to wear a brace while you sleep during the healing process.
Chin Augmentation FAQs

Generally, patients can expect some swelling, bruising, and discomfort immediately after surgery, with recovery typically taking a couple of weeks.
