Chin Corrections

A well-shaped chin provides harmony in the facial profile. A small chin can make the nose look too big, thus creating an imbalance in facial aesthetics. While in women a delicate chin is perceived as beautiful, a prominent, broad chin is considered particularly masculine. In the frontal view, regardless of gender, the forehead, the length of the nose and the mouth/chin area should be in a ratio of one third each.

Types of Chin Correction

Chin Enlargement / Chin Build-up with Hyaluronic Acid

Similar to the cheek reconstruction, hyaluronic acid can be used as an injection method on site for chin reconstruction. In this procedure, the hyualornic acid is injected from the outsideinto the chin bone and is modelled bluntly, resulting in a harmonious overall shape of the face.

Chin Augmentation with the Patient’s Own Fat

Own fat transplantation is also perfectly suited to chin reconstruction. The transplantation of autologous fat proceeds in the same way as when other body regions are built up with autologous fat. In this case, fat can be removed by liposuction analogous to cheek augmentation with the patient’s own fat. Afterwards, the fat tissue obtained can be injected into the chin region in the form of a lipotransfer. If the fatty tissue has been incorporated and incorporated by the recipient area, the result can be considered stable in the long term. However, the chin region is not suitable for large volume transplants of autologous fat, so this procedure is only intended for smaller volume additions

Chin Augmentation with Silicone Chin Implants

The use of silicone implants on the chin is a particularly useful option for chin augmentation. The silicone implants can be inserted from intraorally (i.e. coming from the oral mucosa) or under the chin through a small skin incision to the lower jaw. The size of the chin implant is selected according to the patient’s wishes and then inserted via one of the two mentioned accesses, which is also coordinated with the patient. Chin plastic surgery or chin enlargement/chin augmentation can therefore be performed safely and in the long term for the patient.

Costs

Cost of the Initial Consultation

The costs of the initial consultation always depend on the type and extent of the treatment. In principle, the scale of fees for doctors applies to the consultation hours. Thereafter, patients pay 50 euros for the initial consultation with anamnesis, collection of previous findings, physical examination and preparation of a therapy and cost plan. This fee is payable once and will not be credited towards further treatment. Additional appointments and post-operative care are included in the total price of the operation and do not have to be paid separately. This is the only way to ensure a high-quality treatment with sufficient treatment time, during which we can respond to you and your specific needs. In order to ensure the success of the treatment, we have to carry out the consultation with sufficient time and care.
