The contour of the chin has a significant effect on the overall balance of a person’s face. Men and women who lack definition in their chin may feel self-conscious about having a recessed or “weak” chin and desire a contour that is better proportioned to the rest of their facial features.

Chin augmentation surgery, using biocompatible, anatomically customized chin implants, can improve the definition of a weak chin and achieve a natural looking balance to enhance the entire face.

Chin Surgery Procedure Details

During a chin enhancement (chin augmentation), Dr. Sunde inserts an implant made of a safe, synthetic composite around the existing chin bone, adding definition to the chin. The size and contour of the implant to be used will be determined before surgery and custom-fit to achieve the most natural looking results for a patient’s unique facial structure.

A chin enhancement is frequently performed at the same time as another facial procedure, such as nose reshaping, to achieve optimal balance to the face. During a personal consultation, Dr. Sunde discusses each patient’s concerns to best understand his or her personal goals. Together with the patient, Dr. Sunde will recommend a surgical plan to best achieve these goals. Dr. Sunde offers a caring approach and thoughtful attention to detail because he wants his patients to look and feel their absolute best.
