Do you wish you had a stronger jawline or a more defined chin?
If you’re ready to change and contour your facial profile, it’s time to discover chin augmentation with implants. Read on to learn more about this popular surgery, including how much it costs.
What is Chin Augmentation?
If you feel self-conscious about the appearance of your jawline, you may be a good candidate for chin augmentation. This surgical procedure helps add shape and structure to the chin, which in turn balances out the jawline.
Chin augmentation is an especially popular surgery with men who may feel as though they have a “weak” chin or want a more masculine-looking jawline.
Chin augmentation is typically performed with silicone implants. These small implants are customized to your specific shape and desired aesthetic goals, so they can provide you with the results you’re looking for. The implant is placed within the submental (chin) tissue using just a small incision, meaning most chin augmentation procedures can be performed under local anesthesia.
Recovery is minimal; most patients are able to return to work after a couple of days. Swelling and bruising are usually present for about two weeks before you’ll begin to see your brand-new chin and jawline.
How Much Does Chin Augmentation Cost?
According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, the average cost of chin augmentation with implants is $2,364.
Keep in mind that this figure doesn’t include additional surgical costs, including:
- Anesthesia fees
- Prescription medications
- Surgical center fees
- And more
Additionally, your costs can be affected by the experience of your plastic surgeon, as well as the cost-of-living index in the area where the surgery is being performed.
