Cheek/Chin Contouring Before & After Case 262

This 38-year-old woman was bothered by her small double chin and wanted to find a plastic surgeon who could best balance out her profile by making her chin more defined. After researching several plastic surgeons in the Los Angeles area, she decided to schedule a consultation with one of the board-certified plastic surgeons at Dr. Stoker's practice after learning about their reputation for excellent results.

During her consultation, she explained what she wanted to change to her surgeon. To give her a stronger profile and address her concerns about her double chin, her surgeon suggested that she undergo chin augmentation to enhance the lower portion of her face. By increasing the size of her chin, he would also diminish her double chin without having to perform liposuction. By making a small incision under her chin, her surgeon would place the implant and position it into the proper position. Once the incision healed, it would leave only a small, inconspicuous scar underneath her chin.

When her surgery was completed, she was given time to recover before her "after" photos were taken. As can be seen in her "after" photos, her chin is now in balance with her bone structure and with the implant, provides for subtle improvement of her profile and neck. She was very pleased with the results of her surgery.
