Chin Augmentation (Mentoplasty) in Jaipur | Facial Profiloplasty by Dr. Sushrut Kalra
Chin augmentation, also known as mentoplasty, is a procedure designed to improve the projection, width, and shape of the chin. A well proportioned chin plays an important role in overall facial balance, and when it's underdeveloped or set back, it can affect how the nose, lips, and jawline appear together. By adjusting the chin's position relative to the rest of the face, this surgery helps create a stronger, more balanced profile.
Dr. Sushrut Kalra performs precise chin augmentation surgery in Jaipur, using either custom shaped implants or bone repositioning techniques depending on your facial structure, always with the goal of keeping results looking natural to you.
Concerns Addressed by Chin Augmentation
-
A Small or Underdeveloped Chin Adds projection to a chin that appears weak or underdeveloped relative to the rest of the face, often using a custom shaped implant.
-
A Recessed Profile Corrects a chin that sits further back than ideal in relation to the nose and forehead, improving overall facial balance.
-
Early Jowling Along the Jawline Improved chin projection can naturally help tighten the appearance of the jaw to neck area, softening early jowling.
-
Facial Asymmetry Helps balance differences between the left and right sides of the chin, often caused by uneven bone growth or previous injury.
-
Secure, Long Term Implant Placement Implants are placed carefully against the bone to help prevent shifting or movement over time.
-
Choosing the Right Approach Depending on your facial structure, either a custom implant or a bone repositioning technique may be recommended for the most natural, lasting result.
-
Complementing Nose Surgery Chin augmentation is often performed alongside rhinoplasty to create better overall facial harmony between the nose and chin.
