Chin augmentation including chin filler, chin implants and genioplasty in Shrewsbury and Cheshire

Chin filler

A less invasive and temporary option is chin filler, typically Juvederm Voluma (1 - 2ml). A popular and very successful alternative is to re-contour the chin with dermal filler - which can yield fantastic, albeit more temporary results.  Chin sculpting is typically a maximum of 2ml initially, sometimes planning to inject an extra 1 - 2 ml after a week. Typical cost £625

Chin Implants: Defining Your Chin with Precision

Chin implants are a popular cosmetic procedure designed to improve the shape and projection of the chin. Using high-quality implants made of medical-grade materials, we carefully select and customise the size and shape to harmonise with your unique facial features. The implants are then precisely positioned to create a more balanced and proportionate chin, enhancing your overall facial symmetry and profile. Typical cost £3500 +

Genioplasty: Tailored Approach for Optimal Results

Genioplasty, or chin surgery, is another effective technique to enhance your chin's appearance. Unlike chin implants, genioplasty involves reshaping and repositioning your existing chin bone to achieve the desired aesthetic outcome. Skilled surgeons utilise advanced surgical techniques, such as sliding genioplasty or chin bone reduction, to address concerns such as chin recession, asymmetry, or prominent chin projection. Through personalized consultations, I will evaluate your facial structure and recommend the most suitable genioplasty approach to meet your goals. Typical cost £4500 +

Benefits of Chin Implants and Genioplasty

1. Enhanced Facial Profile: Chin implants and genioplasty can significantly improve the balance and proportion of your facial features, creating a more harmonious and attractive profile.

2. Increased Chin Projection: By augmenting or repositioning the chin, these procedures can enhance facial definition and create a stronger jawline.

3. Improved Facial Symmetry: Correcting chin irregularities can help achieve better facial symmetry, enhancing overall facial aesthetics.

4. Boosted Self-Confidence: Enhancing your chin's appearance can have a positive impact on your self-esteem and overall confidence, allowing you to present yourself with assurance.

Recovery and Aftercare

Following chin implants or genioplasty, our dedicated team will provide comprehensive post-operative instructions to ensure a smooth recovery. You may experience temporary swelling, bruising, or mild discomfort, which can be managed with prescribed pain medications and cold compresses. Our surgeons will monitor your progress through follow-up appointments, providing guidance on activities to avoid during the recovery period. Individual recovery times may vary, but most patients can resume their daily routines within a few weeks.

Complications associated with chin implants

1. Infection: Although rare, there is a small risk of developing an infection after the procedure. Our surgeons take meticulous precautions to minimize this risk, including the use of sterile techniques and prescribing antibiotics when necessary.
2. Swelling and Bruising: It is common to experience temporary swelling and bruising around the chin and lower face after chin implant surgery. These effects typically subside within a few weeks, but proper post-operative care and following our surgeon's instructions are crucial to minimizing their duration and severity.
3. Implant Shifting or Displacement: In some cases, the implant may shift or become displaced, leading to an asymmetrical appearance. Our skilled surgeons take great care in selecting the appropriate implant size and securing it properly to minimize the risk of such complications.
4. Numbness or Altered Sensation: Temporary numbness or altered sensation in the chin and lower lip area may occur after the procedure. In most cases, this is a temporary condition that resolves as the nerves heal. However, there is a slight possibility of persistent numbness or altered sensation.

While complications are rare, it is important to understand the potential risks associated with the procedure. Our skilled surgeons will provide you with detailed information during your consultation. 

Complications related to genioplasty

1. Infection: As with any surgical procedure, there is a small risk of infection. Our surgeons adhere to strict hygiene protocols to minimize this risk, and antibiotics may be prescribed as a preventive measure.
2. Swelling and Discomfort: Swelling and discomfort are common after genioplasty and typically subside within a few weeks. Following post-operative instructions, including the use of cold compresses and pain medications, can help manage these effects.
3. Changes in Sensation: Temporary or permanent changes in sensation, including numbness or altered feeling in the chin and lower lip area, may occur. While most individuals regain normal sensation over time, there is a small possibility of persistent changes.
4. Bone Healing Issues: In rare cases, problems with bone healing may occur, resulting in delayed healing or improper fusion of the chin bone. Our experienced surgeons will closely monitor your progress to ensure proper bone healing.
