All 1 Clinics that provide Chin Implant in Northern Ireland

Chin shaping surgery can involve reducing or increasing the size and altering the overall shape of your chin. This surgery is often carried out along with nose shaping (rhinoplasty) in order to create balanced facial features.

Length

Chin implant surgery usually lasts just an hour, but can take longer depending on the exact work required.

Procedure

The procedure itself can be carried out in a number of ways, typical using a small incision inside the lower lip or else just underneath the chin. Either bone is removed from the jaw or small implants are placed against the jaw in order to achieve the desired result. The procedure can be done under local anaesthetic but is typically done under general anaesthetic if combined with other surgeries.

Recovery

Chin shaping does not always require an overnight stay, but you should be collected by a friend or family afterwards. Typically, you can return to normal activities after a week of rest.

Risks

Chin shaping carries many of the same risks involved in other cosmetic procedures. The shape may not turn out exactly as you imagined it, an implant may shift position, there are the usual risks involved in having local or general anaesthetics, there may be a loss of sensation around the area of the incision and/or implant, and there are the usual risks of developing an infection or blood clots associated with any surgical procedure.
