A chin augmentation procedure is performed to bring the chin forward which can balance the lower face with the upper and middle parts of the face. This can include anything from changing the size, shape, structure, or small details of your chin. For permanent chin augmentation, an implant that is customized for the individual patient can be used. For a semi-permanent augmentation, a filler can be used.
A chin reduction, on the other hand, works to make the area smaller to create balance in the lower face. This is performed by making incisions on the inside of the mouth. This can be combined with jaw contouring surgery to narrow or contour the lower aspect of the face.
The cost of a chin augmentation will be calculated based on the cost of treatment for each patient individually. Different factors may go into achieving the final result and some patients may combine other treatments or opt to skip surgical solutions altogether. Ultimately, this will affect final costs.
Surgical chin augmentations, either with implants, bone reduction, or a combination of both, offer permanent results. Non-surgical options, such as fillers, typically last between 12 and 18 months, depending on the type of filler used and individual factors like metabolism.
