What Is Chin Augmentation With Implants?

Chin implants allow Dr. Thompson to create a highly customized lower facial shape that improves harmony among the features and balances the profile. Silicone implants come in a wide variety of shapes and sizes, allowing for finely honed customization and a high level of patient satisfaction. Dr. Thompson’s artistic eye for detail ensures your chin sculpting results appear natural and seamless. 

Unlike dermal fillers, chin implants in Denver provide a long-lasting transformation that can boost your confidence and quality of life. Many patients choose to undergo chin augmentation in tandem with rhinoplasty, as this can provide improved proportion and a more attractive cumulative result. In some cases, a chin implant can be performed in combination with a neck lift to produce a more comprehensive anti-aging outcome.

How Is Chin Augmentation in Denver Performed?


To begin, Dr. Thompson will ensure you are resting peacefully under general anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation. He will then create a small incision underneath the chin or inside the mouth, sliding the implant in to fit snugly around the chin bone. The process usually takes about one hour or less to complete. If you are also undergoing rhinoplasty or a neck lift, your total procedure time may be extended. Once all changes have been completed, Dr. Thompson will close your incision using advanced suturing techniques that minimize scarring.

After Your Procedure

After surgery, it is normal to experience mild swelling, bruising, and tenderness in the treated area. Dr. Thompson will provide a customized aftercare plan with instructions for wound care, showering, sleeping, resuming exercise, and returning to work. Most patients can get back to their normal activities within the first week after surgery. Taking prescribed pain medications and using cold compresses will help to alleviate discomfort in the coming days. 

You will be instructed to sleep face-up for one or two weeks after chin augmentation to protect your incisions and minimize swelling. For a few days after your procedure, you may have to consume a liquid diet. While you can take gentle walks right away, you should avoid strenuous exercise for three or four weeks. Within one month after surgery, you should be able to enjoy a more sculpted, attractive, lower facial appearance, with full changes apparent after three months once all residual swelling has died down.
