Chin & Cheek Augmentation

Chin and cheek implants provide permanent structural enhancement using medical-grade materials, while fat transfer uses your own purified fat to restore volume and contour. Implants offer predictable shape and projection, whereas fat transfer provides a softer, more natural-feeling result that may change over time.

Chin and cheek implants are designed to be long-lasting and, in most cases, permanent. They do not need to be replaced on a routine basis unless changes are desired or complications arise.

Once healing is complete, properly placed implants typically feel natural and integrate well with surrounding tissues. Most patients report that implants are not noticeable during normal facial movement or touch.

Yes. Chin and cheek augmentation is frequently combined with procedures such as rhinoplasty, facelift, neck lift, or eyelid surgery to improve overall facial balance. Dr. Nassif carefully plans combined procedures to maintain harmony and proportion.

Initial improvements are visible soon after surgery, but swelling can take several weeks to fully resolve. Final results typically become apparent within two to three months as tissues settle into their new contours.

Both men and women pursue chin and cheek augmentation. Men often seek stronger jawline and chin definition, while women may focus on enhancing cheek contours or restoring volume lost with aging. Each treatment plan is customized to the patient’s facial structure and goals.

As with any surgical procedure, risks may include infection, implant shifting, or asymmetry. Choosing a highly experienced facial plastic surgeon significantly reduces these risks and helps ensure safe, natural-looking outcomes.
