Why Choose A Chin Implant?
Chin implant surgery is ideal for individuals who feel that their chin is not proportionate to the rest of their facial features. It can improve facial symmetry by enhancing chin proportion, correct a weak or recessed chin, enhance the definition of your neck and jawline, and even get rid of the dreaded "double" chin or hanging jowls that many people have struggled to get rid of, despite diet and exercise.

Chin Implant
The cost of a chin implant depends on several factors, including the complexity of the procedure, anesthesia fees, hospital charges, and more. While cosmetic procedures like chin augmentation are generally not covered by insurance, procedures that are corrective and have a mostly functional purpose might be. Dr. Studin believes in pricing transparency, and will outline all your options during your consultation.
The ideal candidates for chin augmentation are typically those with a small, weak or receding chin, but who otherwise have a normal dental bite. Others may have a full or hanging neck or jowls. A thorough consultation with Dr. Studin will determine if chin augmentation is suitable for you based on your unique needs and facial structure.

Procedure
Anesthesia
Dr. Studin begins the surgery with the administration of either general anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation. This will make sure you're comfortable and pain-free throughout the chin implant procedure. The type of anesthesia used will be determined based on the surgery's complexity and your personal preference.
Incision
A strategic incision is made by Dr. Studin, which could be either underneath the chin or inside the mouth. You all have discussed these different approaches with Dr. Studin before your procedure and decided together which one to use.
Implant Placement
Through the initial incision, Dr. Studin carefully creates space for the chin implant. The implant is then precisely positioned around the chin bone, bolstering the chin's size and shape. This step is essential for achieving a more attractive chin and balanced facial features.
Recovery
Post-operative recovery is an extremely important step of the chin implant process. Patients usually experience minimal downtime but will be provided with specific care instructions by Dr. Studin in order to properly heal. Key recommendations include sleeping with the head elevated to reduce swelling, and following a soft diet the first few days after surgery to minimize pressure on the chin area. Most patients can resume their normal activities within a week.
