AESTHETIC SURGERY

Chin and cheeks

Chin augmentation

Surgical approach

Mentoplasty

A weak chin has a significant effect on other features of your face: your nose appears larger, and your lower lip seems heavier. A weak chin also affects your facial expression. It gives a 'weak' appearance. This is more of a feeling than something visibly obvious. An augmentation of the weak chin or 'Mentoplasty' could correct this imbalance.

Surgery details

A small incision is made under the chin. A synthetic implant, similar to a sponge, is then inserted inside the chin to enhance it.

Surgery duration: Chin augmentation takes approximately one hour.

Anesthesia... without general anesthesia

Local anesthesia with sedation is used for your chin augmentation. Therefore, chin plastic surgery is performed by Dr. Fanous without the need for general anesthesia. You can return home on the same day as the chin surgery.

After chin augmentation

Recovery time

Some numbness of the lips may be experienced for a few days to a few weeks after chin surgery (Mentoplasty).

Possible complications

Risks associated with Mentoplasty

Like any other cosmetic surgical procedure, complications are possible but uncommon: infection, bleeding, excessive scarring, sensory changes, skin necrosis, asymmetry, numbness, pain, implant rejection, etc.

Facial injection

Sagging cheeks

Sagging cheeks can be improved with fat injections or with hyaluronic acid injections or filler agents.
