Chin Implant
Will Your Chin Implant Look Natural?
Do you think chin implants look natural? The chances are, you’re seeing them daily and may not always be aware. That’s because the science and technology behind today’s advanced chin augmentation options make them incredibly natural-looking. Toronto chin implant patients are seeking to balance their facial features, and aside from rhinoplasty, custom chin and jaw implants have now become a leading choice for both men and women of all ages.
Chin Implant & The Nose
A chin implant to improve your nose?
Did you know that your “too big” nose may simply need a stronger chin to balance it out? Many people find that adjusting the lower face brings the other features into harmony, and an implant can actually make the nose look smaller or just right. Your expert Toronto facial plastic surgeon understands the intricacies of facial measurements and ideal proportions. That’s why you may be surprised if the chin implant recommended for you is very thin and subtle but makes an incredible impact.
When considering implants for the chin or other facial areas, many people wonder if their result will appear natural. You might even worry that you’ll be able to “feel” the implant. It’s safe to say that most people don’t want to have fake or obvious-looking cosmetic surgery. Your enhancements should never give your secret away. Dr. Cory Torgerson is a highly skilled and experienced surgeon specializing in cosmetic procedures for the head and neck. When it comes to implants, his patients have a wide variety of options available to them.
What are chin implants made from?
Male patients frequently request custom jaw implants, including jaw angle and mandibular implants. These are often inserted between the bottom of the gums and the cheek. They alter the face volume and width at the jawline. If you have a thin, pointed chin, a long face, or a jaw that blends with your neck, the characteristically male definition and strength that this creates can make a big impact on your appearance.
Facial implants are made from different materials, including predetermined sizes and content that can be customized for the patient. Gore-Tex and silicone options are popular. Dense polyethylene or mesh implants are also good options. It’s up to you and your surgeon which material you choose, but many specialists have a favourite type, and your surgeon will explain the benefits for the one they recommend.
Are you a good candidate?
The best way to determine how well this procedure suits you is to meet with an expert facial surgeon in person. Toronto chin implant surgeon Dr. Cory Torgerson offers no-obligation consultations so that patients are free to ask questions, share their vision, and make decisions without the pressure of having to book a procedure.
If you’re in good general health, have realistic expectations, and want to enhance your jaw or chin, we welcome you to call us and arrange a private consultation.
How can you ensure a natural-looking chin implant?
The first step when planning any cosmetic surgery is to choose a facial plastic surgeon who has plenty of experience with this procedure. Toronto plastic surgeons typically select a few areas of the body to focus their work on, and they develop expert skills in those areas. When it comes to your face, the practitioner who spends the majority of operating time on other areas won’t be an ideal choice.
As long as your implant is sized and inserted correctly, you can count on a relatively quick and straightforward recovery. The implant is typically only felt while healing and will lock into place to feel just like part of you within a couple of weeks.
During the planning phase, digital imaging software can be useful to give the patient and surgeon a good idea of the changes to expect. Precise measurements in fractions of millimetres contribute to a result so naturally in sync with your face that it appears you were born with it. You’re certainly not limited to large or dramatically projected chin implants. A range of sizes and shapes create soft and delicate changes too. There are implants suitable for just about any aesthetic goal and for both men and women.
Customized chin implants work well with other procedures
When you have a chance to sit down with Dr. Cory Torgerson to share your facial concerns, he’ll examine and assess all of your features to provide feedback and personalized recommendations. It’s not uncommon for a person to seek information about a particular treatment, then discover that a different one will be better matched to their goals. Sometimes the image we see in the mirror downplays or exaggerates a feature, and it can be challenging to get a true view of our own appearance. That’s why a specialist with 18 years of surgical training and in-depth experience in the head and neck can help you pinpoint the issue with insightful feedback.
Commonly, people choose to undergo a rhinoplasty along with chin augmentation. Other possibilities to restructure the face include various facial implants or injectable dermal fillers. You may find that the combination or substitution of another treatment can shift the balance and make your reflection finally appear optimal.
Dr. Torgerson will take ample time to discuss the details of chin surgery, various implant options, and the considerations for healing. You’ll be able to view chin implant before and after photos and use 3D computer imaging to visualize the potential improvements.
