| Chin Augmentation |
| |
| This involves insertion of an implant to alter the size and shape of the chin to make it aesthetically appealing. |
| |
| This is performed via an incision beneath the chin - in preference to an oral incision, which has an increased incidence of infection. A pre-formed implant (depending on the exact deformity to be corrected) is placed beneath the periosteum directly onto the mandible. The area is closed with an absorbable suture. The procedure can be perfomed on an outpatient basis under local anesthesia. |
