What Is Chin Implant Surgery?

During chin implant surgery , Dr. Perez-Gurri will insert a soft, flexible silicone implant that feels like natural tissue found in the chin. The implants are available in a variety of sizes and shapes that allows a custom fitting of the implant to the contours of the patient’s face. The incision is created inside the mouth to avoid visible scarring. During your complimentary consultation with Dr. Perez-Gurri will carefully assess your facial features , and provide tailored recommendations for your surgery.

What Are the Benefits of a Chin Augmentation in Miami, FL?

This surgery brings several advantages for you to consider.

There are other techniques for enhancing your chin, like dermal fillers or jaw surgery. However, fillers are only a temporary solution, since your body will metabolize them over time. With jaw surgery, the treatment plan is more extensive and requires a much longer healing period. A chin augmentation can provide long-lasting benefits through a less involved process.

Often, patients are hesitant to undergo a chin augmentation because they don’t want their results to look too exaggerated. Luckily, chin implants can look very natural. These devices come in various shapes and sizes, so you can customize them to match the look you want to achieve.

Your surgeon will insert a silicone chin implant into a tiny incision inside your lower lip. This location will conceal the resulting scar during day-to-day interactions, so the only person who will know about your chin augmentation is you.  You’ll experience mild discomfort a day or two after your surgery, and should be free to go about your life as normal within a week.

Miami Chin Implants FAQ

Multiple studies have shown that smoking has an adverse effect on tissues and will often delay healing. We ask that you stop smoking for two to three weeks prior to your surgery. Although this will not prevent all adversities on your healing, it will likely improve pulmonary function.
