Good candidates for the procedure are typically people over the age of 18 who are in good health and do not smoke. It's important to wait until at least age 18 since the mandible continues to develop until that age. If you have a normal bite and are seeking to enhance your chin's appearance, genioplasty may be the right choice. Chin augmentation is an ideal procedure for those seeking help with:
Your chin augmentation will begin during your pre-surgery appointments, when Dr. Sukkar carefully evaluates your facial anatomy and determines the precise size and shape of your ideal chin.
From there, he will create a custom implant to be placed during surgery to enhance your chin and improve your overall facial appearance. The actual procedure will be performed under general anesthesia, which means you will be completely unconscious and unable to feel pain throughout surgery.
To begin your procedure for chin augmentation Houston plastic surgeon, Dr. Sukkar, will create a precise incision, either underneath the chin or inside the mouth, depending on your unique needs. He will then insert the chin implant, ensuring it is perfectly balanced with your other features and creates the precise cosmetic outcome you’ve envisioned. Once the implant is in its proper location, Dr. Sukkar will suture it in place and send you home to begin the healing process.
After the procedure, our Houston chin augmentation patients should plan to stay home from work and other social obligations for at least one week. During this time, you won’t feel comfortable out in public, because you will likely experience some pain, swelling and bruising – all of which will subside within seven to ten days.
If your chin implant incision was placed inside the mouth, you’ll also need to adopt a temporary soft-food diet for a few days to give your gums a chance to heal. In addition, Dr. Sukkar may advise you to rinse with salt water after eating to prevent debris and bacteria from building up in the area. After the first week, you’ll need to return to Dr. Sukkar’s Houston office so he can remove your stitches, evaluate your progress, answer any questions you may have and provide you with personalized guidance regarding the rest of your recovery period. In general, you’ll be able to resume your normal daily routine within seven days, with a full return to more strenuous activities within three weeks.
If you have a weak or recessed chin, and it causes the rest of your facial features to appear out of balance, you may benefit from a chin augmentation in Houston with Dr. Sukkar. To be considered an ideal candidate, your jaw and teeth should function optimally, and you should be a non-smoker and in good overall health.
