The Basics

What is a Chin Implant?

A chin augmentation, also known as a mentoplasty, is a perfect procedure for patients seeking to correct a weak chin, improve facial proportions, and enhance overall symmetry. As a specialist in chin alternation, Dr. Paul routinely enhances the look of an underprojected chin by inserting a chin implant.

By aligning the chin with the lower lip, Dr. Paul crafts each chin surgery to match the unique facial proportions of each patient’s face.

What’s The First Step?

If you’re considering Chin Implant surgery in NYC or the surrounding area, the first step is to schedule a consultation with Dr. Benjamin Paul. During your consultation, you will have the opportunity to discuss your concerns, goals, and expectations regarding your chin and facial appearance. Dr. Paul will carefully evaluate your facial anatomy, including the structure of your chin and jawline, and assess whether a chin implant is the most suitable option to achieve your desired results.

Dr. Paul will take into account your facial proportions, balance, and overall aesthetic goals to develop a personalized treatment plan. Once you both agree on the procedure plan, our Patient Coordinator will work with you to schedule your surgery, and you will be provided with certain instructions on how to make your procedure as successful as possible.

What to Expect on the Day of Chin Implant Surgery

On the day of your Chin Implant surgery in New York City, you can expect a comfortable and well-organized experience. After checking in, you will meet with Dr. Paul again and go over any last-minute questions.  General anesthesia will be administered to ensure your comfort throughout the surgery.

Dr. Paul will insert your implant under the skin of the chin with a small incision on the undersurface of the chin in a natural camouflage zone. The procedure is performed in Dr. Paul’s state-of-the-art surgical suite at his surgical center. The incisions will then be closed using sutures. After the surgery, you will be taken to a recovery area where you will receive post-operative instructions and be monitored by the medical staff.

Chin Implant Recovery

Recovering from Chin Implant surgery requires some time and patience. After the procedure, patients can recover at home. You can expect some swelling, bruising, and discomfort around the chin and jawline. The surgical area may feel tight, and you may have difficulty fully opening your mouth or moving your lips initially.

It’s important to follow the post-operative instructions provided by our team to ensure a smooth recovery. This may include taking prescribed medications, using cold compresses to reduce swelling, keeping your head elevated while sleeping, and avoiding strenuous activities for a few weeks.

The sutures are removed after one week. Dr. Paul’s chin augmentation surgery instantly improves the appeal of the face in one hour of surgery.

Combine Your Chin Implant
