Chin Augmentation

The Premier Chin Augmentation & Chin Implant Surgeon in Las Vegas

All of our procedures are safely performed under local anesthesia in the comfort and convenience of our Center. Dr. Lanfranchi has served over 10,000 patients since 2006 using his specialized technique.

Want to improve the contours of your chin from every angle with a simple in-office procedure?

We offer very natural-appearing chin augmentation procedures for clients who want a more defined chin and profile. Often combined with the TLC LiftTM (Lower Facelift & Necklift), the Chin Augmentation Las Vegas enhancement procedure will help add more angle and sharpness to your profile.

It will also help to balance your facial proportions and harmony. Chin augmentation can be performed as a single procedure (or combined with neck liposuction) in younger patients who are in their 20’s, 30’s, and 40’s.

What is Chin Augmentation?

Chin augmentation takes under an hour to perform in our Center. A tiny incision (less than an inch in width) is made in the natural horizontal crease under the chin so that it is well hidden. Usually, only a few stitches are needed to close the incision (they are typically removed after one week) so that it heals perfectly!

We typically like to use a silicone extended anatomic implant in most clients. This implant is our favorite since it augments both the front and sides of the chin to mirror your natural structure and maintain the essence of your appearance. There are a few sizes to choose from based on the amount of improvement one desires.

Are You a Candidate for Chin Augmentation?

A chin augmentation could be a good fit for you if you’re seeking a long-term solution for a weak or under-defined chin. Dr. Lanfranchi is able to customize your augmentation to your aesthetic desires with a variety of silicone implants. Safely and effectively define your chin and jawline from every angle.

Chin augmentation has always had one of the highest satisfaction scores among patients. By creating a subtle aesthetic balance between one’s nose, cheeks, and chin, this procedure is one of the best-kept secrets in Hollywood!  Schedule an in-person consultation to find out if chin augmentation is right for you.


What is Recovery Like After Chin Augmentation?

Swelling is typically minimal with a chin augmentation procedure, and bruising is often not common. Recovery time (as any swelling post-surgical subsides) is usually only a few days, allowing you to quickly get back to your daily routine.

Full recovery can take up to several months as your new chin continues to “settle.” Dr. Lanfranchi will provide you with a custom recovery plan to facilitate a speedy recovery sans complications.

Chin Augmentation FAQs

In Dr. Lanfranchi’s practice, approximately 1/3 of patients having a lower facelift and neck lift opt for chin augmentation with a silicone implant.  The goal of the implant is not to highlight the chin per se, but to rather create balance and harmony with the rest of the face in a subtle and natural way. 

Some of his most impressive and dramatic before and after photo comparisons include using a chin implant with the lower facelift and neck lift when the patient presents with an initial weak or underdeveloped chin.

Not at all!  Including an implant to the lower facelift and neck lift only adds results with more dramatic jawline and neck angles!  There is no additional incision(s), as the implant is placed through the same tiny incision under the chin used to treat the central neck tissue for the neck lift portion of the procedure. 

There is no extra discomfort or recovery time.  Having extra structural support with the implant actually make one age better into the future, as the more support one has in the jawline, the better one ages.

The answer of course is determined by me.  In an isolated chin augmentation (especially in 20- 30 year olds) about 50-60% of our patients have associated neck liposuction to help define the tissue under the sides of the jawbone. 

In a lower facelift and neck lift, just about every patient has lipo as part of their neck lift treatment (for example: lipo with platysmaplasty).
