Achieve Balance with Chin Augmentation

The chin is a prominent facial feature that has a significant impact on overall facial appearance. A chin that is too large or over-projecting may appear out of proportion with the rest of the face and detract from the eyes by interfering with the overall harmony of the face.

How Is Chin Reduction Performed?

Chin reduction is performed as an outpatient procedure under sedation anesthesia. It begins with a small incision that Dr. Fechner likes to place strategically into a natural crease under the chin.

Next, he removes excess bone to shape and contour the chin and then closes the incision with sutures. Sometimes, in addition to bone, Dr. Fechner removes soft tissues in order to treat a droopy chin or to prevent such an issue from occurring.
