Chin plastic surgery with an anatomical implant
Chin plastic surgery with an implant is a procedure that involves the implantation of a silicon implant directly in the chin part of the jaw. The purpose is to enhance the shape of chin, which improves the general appearance of the whole face and gives it suitable proportions and a fine profile. The effect is permanent and continues for many years.

The second method that gives a temporary effect (2 years) of enhancing a chin profile is the procedure that involves filling in this area with hyaluronic acid of high density.
Indicators for the procedure of chin correction
An indication for the surgery is the excessive recess and underdevelopment of the chin part of the jaw.
If irregularities of teeth are excluded and only chin underdevelopment is confirmed, the procedure may be carried out.
Advantages of the method
The plastic surgery of chin allows patients to improve the look of their face, give it suitable proportions and regain a beautiful profile. The procedure lets patients get rid of their complexes and regain high self-esteem. Owing to their improved appearance, patients have a chance to change their life and make their dreams come true.
Preparation for the procedure
Consultation with a medical practitioner is necessary to carry out the assessment of chin underdevelopment. In addition to consultation, blood test results have to be presented: blood count, prothrombin time, anti-HBs, HBs antigen, and HCV.
Procedure
The surgery is carried out with local anaesthesia. A cut is made in a skin fold in the chin area. A silicon anatomic implant, after its introduction, is additionally fixed with a titanium screw to ensure its permanent and stable fastening.
Post-procedure recommendations
After the chin enlargement procedure, a patient wears a special compression band that goes over the head.
A stitch in the cut is self-absorbed, while an intradermal stitch is removed after 7-10 days.
The patient is discharged home directly after the procedure.
Possible complications
After a chin correction surgery, as after any other surgical procedure, complications may occur. The most frequent ones include haematoma in the cut, cut infection or implant dislocation.
