Chin augmentation or “Genioplasty” involves placing a permanent silicone implant along the lower border of the chin bone. To do this, a small incision is made under the chin in a natural crease or inside the mouth. Chin implants come in a variety of sizes and shapes, and Dr.Jacobson can individually tailor your procedure to enhance your natural beauty.

Downtime
