A chin implant enhances chin projection and improves the balance between your facial features — creating a more defined profile and strengthening the overall facial structure.
Mentoplasty places a small, shaped silicone implant at the tip of the chin to add projection and improve facial proportion. A weak or recessed chin can make the nose appear larger and the face less balanced overall.
The implant is inserted through a small incision either under the chin or inside the mouth, leaving no visible external scar when the intraoral approach is used.
Chin implants are frequently combined with rhinoplasty — since the nose and chin define the facial profile together, improving both in the same session produces superior overall harmony.
