Chin Augmentation Surgery at Light Plastic Surgery Clinic
Are you looking to improve facial balance, enhance your side profile, or correct a recessed chin? Chin augmentation surgery is a popular cosmetic procedure in Korea that can help you achieve a more sculpted, symmetrical, and confident look.
At Light Plastic Surgery Clinic, we specialize in personalized facial contouring procedures designed to complement your natural features. Our expert surgeons use advanced techniques and high-quality implants or filler materials to ensure safe, long-lasting, and aesthetically pleasing results.
Why Choose Chin Augmentation?
Chin augmentation (genioplasty or mentoplasty) is ideal for individuals who wish to:
- Enhance a weak or recessed chin
- Improve the overall balance between the nose, lips, and jaw
- Create a more defined and structured facial profile
- Reduce the appearance of a “double chin” caused by poor chin projection
- Boost confidence through refined aesthetics
Chin augmentation can be performed using either implants or non-surgical filler options depending on your desired outcome and facial anatomy.
Tailored Approach to Chin Enhancement
Every face is unique, which is why our clinic takes a highly personalized approach to chin surgery. During your consultation, we will assess your facial structure, review your goals, and recommend the most suitable technique.
Chin Augmentation Methods:
- Chin Implant Surgery: Silicone or Gore-Tex implants are inserted through a discreet incision (usually inside the mouth or under the chin) to add volume and projection.
- Sliding Genioplasty (Bone Surgery): A segment of the chin bone is repositioned forward and secured in place for a more dramatic, natural result.
- Filler Chin Augmentation: Hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers offer a temporary, non-surgical alternative with instant results and minimal downtime.
Consultation and Planning
At Light Plastic Surgery Clinic, your consultation will involve:
- A thorough facial analysis using 3D imaging
- Discussion of your aesthetic preferences and lifestyle
- Viewing before-and-after photos of past chin augmentation cases
- Customized treatment planning with implant sizing or filler options
- Honest discussion of risks, outcomes, and recovery
Our goal is to ensure that you feel informed and confident every step of the way.
