Chin Implant (Silicone)

A silicone chin implant is a reliable option for patients seeking improved profile and jawline contour with a predictable outcome and minimal downtime. The implant is placed through a small incision either inside the mouth or beneath the chin, and is carefully positioned to enhance chin projection and definition while maintaining a natural appearance.

Genioplasty (Bone Repositioning)

A genioplasty involves surgically repositioning the patient's own chin bone and allows for more precise correction of chin height, width, and projection. This option is often preferred in cases requiring significant structural adjustment or when combined with jaw surgery. Because it uses the patient's own bone, results are permanent and integrate naturally with the facial skeleton.

Chin Augmentation with Rhinoplasty

Chin augmentation is frequently combined with rhinoplasty to achieve optimal facial balance. The relationship between the nose and chin is critical to overall facial harmony. By addressing both in a single procedure, Dr. Sloan can create a more balanced profile and improved facial proportions.

Choosing the Right Approach

Both chin implant and genioplasty are carefully selected to achieve natural, proportionate results. The best approach depends on the degree of chin deficiency, whether height or width correction is needed, and whether the procedure is being combined with jaw surgery. Dr. Sloan will discuss the advantages of each option during your consultation.

Your Consultation

During your consultation, Dr. Sloan will evaluate your facial proportions, discuss your aesthetic goals, and recommend the most appropriate approach. Advanced imaging helps visualize potential outcomes and ensures you feel confident in your treatment plan.
