Have you ever looked in the mirror and wished for a more defined jawline or balanced profile? You’re not alone. At Wave Plastic Surgery & Aesthetic Laser Center, we help people redefine facial contours with chin augmentation—a transformative procedure that enhances confidence and harmony. As the nation’s most extensive plastic surgery practice, we specialize in advanced procedures like facelifts, endoscopic surgery, and Asian plastic surgery. Among these, chin implants are a game-changer for those seeking a more substantial, proportional look.
What is A Chin Implant?
Think of a chin implant (also known as chin augmentation) as a way to sculpt your profile. Technically known as genioplasty, this procedure involves placing a biocompatible implant along the chin bone to create a more defined and balanced appearance. If you’ve ever felt your chin looks too small or your jawline lacks structure, a chin implant might be the perfect solution. It’s not just about aesthetics—it’s about bringing harmony to your features.
Benefits of Chin Augmentation
Here’s what a chin implant can do for you:
- Enhance Facial Balance: Bring harmony to your chin, nose, and jawline.
- Create a Stronger Profile: Make your side profile more striking and defined.
- Turn Back Time: Address a recessed or sagging chin often associated with aging.
- Personalized Results: Tailored to your anatomy and aesthetic goals.
Chin Implant Before and After Results
The difference a chin implant can make is incredible. Picture this: someone who’s always avoided side-profile photos suddenly feels confident snapping selfies from any angle. That’s the kind of transformation our patients experience.

The Chin Implant Procedure
Here’s what to expect during your chin augmentation journey:
Step 1: Consultation and Planning
We start by getting to know you—your medical history, aesthetic preferences, and expectations. Then, we use advanced 3D imaging to create a personalized plan that visualizes your potential results.
Step 2: Surgery Day
This outpatient procedure typically takes 1-2 hours and is performed under local or general anesthesia. Using a small, discreet incision inside your mouth or beneath your chin, the implant is carefully positioned to enhance your profile.
Step 3: Recovery
Most patients return to their daily routines within a week. While some swelling and bruising are normal, they subside within two weeks, revealing your refined look. Complete healing occurs over a few months as the implant settles naturally.
Post-operative care includes:
- Keeping the incision site clean
- Avoiding strenuous activities for 4-6 weeks
- Attending follow-up appointments for progress checks
Chin Implant vs. Non-Surgical Options
If surgery feels like a big step, consider dermal fillers for temporary chin augmentation. While fillers can enhance the chin for 6-12 months, they don’t offer the same precision, projection, or permanence as a chin implant.
If you’re ready for lasting results, chin augmentation with an implant is the way to go.
Key Points About Dermal Fillers:
- They provide results that last 6-12 months
- Fillers may not achieve the same level of projection or balance
- They require ongoing maintenance

Chin Implant: Patient Testimonial
“I am so grateful for Dr. Ben Lee and his entire team at Wave Plastic Surgery. They have all been incredibly kind and diligent from my initial inquiry into making a consultation through today (1 week post op). I felt heard and cared for – my hand was literally held by the sweetest surgical nurse during my chin implant procedure. I have anxiety issues and I never felt uncomfortable reaching out with questions pre and post op.
Dr. Ben literally made my dreams come true with the results of my procedure!! I literally cried happy tears on the way home from my one week post op apt this morning.
I will circle back with some before and after photos after I have sutures removed next week.
Having a cosmetic procedure can be daunting and emotional so although I never leave reviews i felt obligated to share this experience.
Thank you Dr. Ben Lee and team.”
