Chin surgery changes the size or position of the chin. It can strengthen a weak chin, reduce a prominent one, and bring the nose, lips and jaw into better proportion.
The chin has a large effect on the profile. A small or recessed chin can make the nose look larger and the neck less defined.
Dr. Sood can enhance the chin with a custom-sized implant, or move the chin bone itself forward, back, up or down. The incision is usually placed inside the mouth or in the natural crease under the chin.
Chin surgery is often combined with rhinoplasty or a neck lift, since all three shape the profile together.
You may be a good candidate if you are healthy and feel your chin is out of proportion with the rest of your face.
If your question is not here, bring it to consultation. Nothing is too small to ask.

Yes. Once healed it feels like part of the chin.
Inside the lower lip or in the crease under the chin, so no scar is visible.
An implant suits most patients who want more projection. Moving the bone gives more control over length and position. Dr. Sood will explain which fits your anatomy.
