Types and prices

Chin implants Toronto

When you schedule a consultation to learn about chin enhancement surgery, you’ll receive a pre-surgery estimate, also called a surgical quote. It’s helpful to know what the quote includes. One reason for that is you’ll want to be prepared for any additional costs like appointments or medication. It’s rare for Canadian cosmetic surgeons to provide multiple bills or charge separately for visits, but it’s a good idea to ask. Another great reason to know what exactly your pricing includes is so you can compare prices with other clinics if you choose.

What’s a Toronto chin implant made of?

Chin implants are usually constructed from surgical-grade silicone or Gore-Tex. Many plastic surgeons choose silicone because it is so easy to implant and remove silicone chin implants. The best option for you will depend on your case and your surgeon’s preference. Gore-Tex is expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE). It’s a unique and beneficial material to use in facial surgery, because it allows your tissue to grow into its tiny pores. While this makes the chin implant very secure, it can pose a challenge for removal if there’s ever a need.

Are chin implants permanent?

Chin Implant Surgery

Many people ask if chin implants last. An excellent alternative to surgery for people who want a subtle chin augmentation is injectable dermal fillers. The effects are instantly satisfying. However, they don’t last more than a year in most cases. For $2,000 to $3,000 more, many people opt to have a permanent chin increase with implants. These devices are made to last. They are either surgical-grade silicone or Gore-Tex, which do not break down in the body.

How long does a chin augmentation surgery take?

Most chin implant operations take about an hour. You and your surgeon will choose the right implant together to achieve the size and contours you want. Small incisions are made inside the mouth between the teeth and the lower lip or sometimes underneath the chin. The great thing about these incisions is that they heal fast, hide well, and end up being virtually invisible.

How much does chin surgery cost?

Chin Surgery Cost

Typically, the price for Toronto chin implant surgery ranges from $6,000 to $7,000 + HST. (Note that prices are subject to change over time.) The specific materials used and your surgeon’s fees factor in. A significant expense on many surgical bills is the cost of general anaesthetic and a licenced anaesthesiologist. Because many facial implants can be inserted quickly and easily with just local and IV sedation, the patient saves money. Skipping general anaesthesia also means a quicker, more comfortable recovery and some decreased health risks.

What should you expect from chin implant recovery?

Your chin may be taped after surgery to help stabilize the implant and keep swelling down. If you have external stitches, they’ll be removed during a follow-up appointment about 1 week after surgery.

You’ll be able to go home right away and relax, doing light activities for the first week. Your facial cosmetic surgeon will advise you about exercises to avoid after receiving your chin implant such as working out and heavy lifting, but you’ll be able to do desk work.

Because the movement of your mouth may be uncomfortable after getting a chin implant, having soft foods ready at home will help you eat. If you have sutures inside your mouth, they’ll dissolve after about 10 days. Your surgeon may ask you to avoid certain foods that could irritate the sutures.

You’ll be most comfortable with the head of your bed elevated somewhat for a week to help reduce any facial swelling, and you can take over-the-counter pain relievers as directed, if needed. Most patients describe the chin implant Toronto procedure and recovery as relatively comfortable and quick.

Talk to Dr. Torgerson about your chin implant in Toronto

We see men and women of all ages to discuss how chin implants and custom jaw angle facial implants can help improve their appearance. These devices are meticulously crafted with ultra-thin edges and subtly sized contours. The difference of only a few millimetres can be impactful and can rebalance all of the facial features. For people who feel self-conscious about an underdeveloped chin, adding the characteristic “strength” of a chiselled jaw does wonders to boost confidence. A chin implant in Toronto can also bring the nose into balance, which means that people who previously felt that their nose was too big may not think that any longer.

Women can benefit from chin implants as well. There are petite implants that help create ideal proportions for a woman’s face and reveal stunning results without appearing too big or strong for feminine features. Because chin implant surgery is so simple and the recovery is quick, it’s well-suited to people of all ages and backgrounds.
