Genioplasty West Hollywood, CA

Chin Surgery West Hollywood

Chin augmentation using patient’s own bone or implants can alter the underlying structure of the face, providing better balance to the facial features. The specific medical terms mentoplasty and genioplasty are used to refer to the reduction or augmentation of chin projection or length.

WHAT IS IT?

A chin implant also known as genioplasty, refers to the improvement of the contours on the face, specifically the chin, neck, and jawline. Usually, this surgical procedure involves the placement of a chin implant around the patient’s existing chin bone to adjust the size and shape of the chin. This similar procedure is done with the jawline. Implants that are placed underneath the skin typically are made of silicone or polyethylene. 

The goal of the implant is to create a more natural contour between your facial features and your neck. This contour offers a way to create more balance to your features. When performed by a skilled cosmetic expert, this solution to your features is permanent.
