What Is a Chin Implant?
A chin implant, medically known as mentoplasty, is a surgical procedure that enhances the size and projection of your chin using a biocompatible implant. The procedure creates better facial balance and proportion by augmenting a weak or recessed chin. Chin implants improve your profile, strengthen your jawline, and create more harmonious facial proportions between your chin, nose, and other features.
