Combining chin augmentation with rhinoplasty.

Patients looking for an improvement in their profile can sometimes benefit from a chin augmentation.

This procedure improves the profile of the lower third of the face, by balancing it with the middle third and the nose.

The procedure is often combined with the rhinoplasty procedure. It involves making a small incision under the chin and placing an implant. The implant is made of silastic and is well tolerated. This material has been used for implants for over 50 years.
