Nine-day post-operative result demonstrating a patient with a congenitally weak/recessed chin. As demonstrated on the lateral pictures, the patient was also exhibiting early signs of aging/jowl formation along her jaw line. For this reason, augmentation mentoplasty/chin augmention was performed with an extended mandibular contouring chin implant that also added projection to the area right in front of the jowls to diminish the appearance of the jowls while simultaneously adding projection to the chin. As noted on the frontal shots, her face appears more balanced with smoother skin along the chin and jaw line. Liposuction also assisted in allowing for a longer, more youthful jaw line/submental plateau.
