How chin surgery
is done
A small incision is made either inside the mouth
or just underneath and behind the most prominent
part of the chin. A sterile surgical material
that has practically the same consistency as the
tissues of the chin is set in front of the jawbone
to bring out the chin. The skin overlying the
implant retains its smooth contour. The new chin
looks natural and the implant is undetectable.
This operation can be combined with the removal
of fat and perhaps a small amount of skin from
underneath the chin, to eliminate a double chin
or redefine a poor neck angle.
