A balanced profile is one of the most important elements of facial harmony. For individuals with a recessed or “weak” chin, the face can appear less defined, and features like the nose may seem more prominent than they actually are. At Tran Plastic Surgery in Huntington Beach, Dr. Tuan Tran offers chin augmentation (mentoplasty) to restore balance, improve facial proportions, and enhance your overall appearance with natural-looking results.
Chin augmentation is a transformative procedure for patients who feel their chin is under-projected or out of proportion with the rest of their face. Benefits include:
Creating stronger definition along the jawline.
Balancing facial proportions for a more harmonious appearance.
Reducing the appearance of a large nose when combined with rhinoplasty.
Achieving a more youthful and confident profile.
Many patients who seek chin augmentation are surprised at how significantly a small adjustment can improve the entire facial aesthetic.
Dr. Tran customizes every chin augmentation procedure based on the patient’s anatomy and desired results. The surgery typically involves:
Incisions: Small, discreet incisions placed either under the chin or inside the mouth.
Implant Placement: A pocket is created in the facial tissue, where a biocompatible implant is carefully inserted. These implants are designed for safety, durability, and natural contour.
Closure: Fine sutures are used to minimize scarring and support a seamless recovery.
Chin augmentation can be performed on its own or in combination with other facial procedures, such as rhinoplasty, a brow lift, or even ear surgery, for a more comprehensive enhancement.
Recovery after chin augmentation is generally smooth and straightforward:
Downtime: Most patients resume normal activities within 4–7 days.
Discomfort: Patients typically describe the sensation as “fullness” or mild achiness rather than pain.
Swelling: Swelling is modest and typically resolves within the first week.
Results: Improvements are visible immediately, with final results becoming more refined as swelling subsides.
Patients are often impressed by the dramatic yet natural-looking enhancement in facial balance and definition.
Choosing the right surgeon is essential to achieving beautiful, natural outcomes. Dr. Tuan Tran is a board-certified plastic surgeon known for his expertise in facial procedures, artistic precision, and patient-first approach. He combines technical skill with an eye for harmony, ensuring that each chin augmentation result complements your unique features.
