Chin Implant Surgery

Is your chin small or set back, making your side profile look unbalanced? In this video, Dr. Ashutosh Shah at Elegance Clinic, Surat, shows how a chin implant is placed to correct a receding chin, from the incision inside the mouth through to the before-and-after result.

What is a receding chin?

A receding chin (retrogenia) sits behind the ideal line of the face when viewed in profile. This can make the lips look more prominent, the jawline look softer and the lower face look out of proportion. A chin implant adds forward projection so the chin, lips and nose sit in better balance.

What the video shows

The video walks through the main steps of the procedure:

• Intraoral incision. The implant goes in through a cut inside the lower lip, so no scar is left on the skin.
• Subperiosteal dissection. A precise pocket is created directly over the chin bone (mandible) to hold the implant securely.
• Implant selection and preparation. A sterile implant is chosen and shaped to suit the patient’s facial proportions.
• Layered closure. The incision inside the mouth is closed in layers to support healing.
• Before and after. The side profile shows the chin projecting into better balance with the rest of the face.

What results can you expect?

The main change shows in the side profile: a more defined chin, a sharper jawline and lips that sit in better harmony with the face. Swelling settles over the following weeks, and the final contour becomes clearer as healing progresses. Results vary from person to person.

Is a chin implant right for you?

Not every small chin needs an implant. Mild cases may suit chin filler. If the problem comes from a significant bite or jaw misalignment, jaw surgery may be more appropriate. A face assessment helps decide which option fits your anatomy.
