Chin Implants for Receding Chin
A case study of a male patient in his 40s who achieved a more masculine and defined jawline using chin implants to correct a receding chin.

* Basic Information
# Male in his 40s
# Concerned about a small, receding chin.
* Consultation
# The patient’s primary concern was that his lower face was too short compared to the overall length of his face, which lacked a masculine feel.
# Due to the receding chin, the neck line was not defined, creating a heavy and blunt appearance. We planned to enhance the tip of the chin using an implant.
* Plan
# Chin Implant





* Post-operative Progress
# By enhancing the tip of the chin, the line leading to the neck has become sharp and masculine.
# Since the surgery is performed through an intraoral incision, it is relatively simple and provides satisfying results without visible scarring.
