Chin Implant

Who it's for

Chin augmentation suits people whose profile looks unbalanced because the chin sits back relative to the lips and nose, or who would like a more defined jawline. It is often considered alongside rhinoplasty for overall facial harmony. Suitability is confirmed by assessing your profile and proportions at consultation.

What the procedure involves

After analysing your profile, the surgeon selects an implant sized to your anatomy. It is placed through a small, discreet incision — usually under the chin or inside the mouth — and positioned to enhance projection in proportion to your features. The aim is a balanced improvement, never an overdone look.

Recovery & downtime

Swelling settles over one to two weeks and most people return to normal activities within a week, with a soft diet and care around the area in the early days. The final contour becomes clear as swelling resolves, and we review your healing at follow-up.

Risks & considerations

Risks include temporary numbness, swelling or, uncommonly, implant movement that may need adjustment. A chin implant is designed to be long-lasting; non-surgical alternatives such as fillers can also be discussed if you prefer a temporary option. We will recommend only what genuinely suits your face.
