Temecula chin implants are typically used to improve the look of a recessed chin. Most of our patients who request chin implants are unhappy with the contours and balance of their faces and dislike their profiles. With one surgery, we can permanently change the shape and size of the chin and the overall look of the face. Additionally, some people seek chin implants because they feel that a recessed chin gives them the look of a double chin.
Benefits of Temecula Chin Implant Cosmetic Procedures
Individuals living in Temecula who are unhappy with the look of their chins or with the symmetry of their lower faces are encouraged to contact Dr. Tavoussi at the OC Cosmetic Surgery Clinique in Newport Beach, California. A simple consultation is all it will take to determine if one may be a candidate for this surgical procedure.
Patients who are approved for chin implant surgery can plan on being asleep for the entire procedure. While it only takes one hour on average to perform, patients will need to spend some additional time at the Pacifica Outpatient Surgery Center to wake up thoroughly and recovery briefly following the surgery. Once patients are stabilized and given discharge instructions, we send patients home the same day to recuperate fully in the comfort of their own beds.
Chin Implant Cosmetic Surgery & Recovery
Following the Temecula chin implant, patients should expect to have a bandage on the chin to cover the sutured incision. While there should not be major bleeding, there may be minor drainage when they are at home. They may also notice swelling and bruising around the affected area. Pain can be controlled with over-the-counter pain medications or with a prescription that Dr. Tavoussi will write.
Many of our patients are able to return to regular daily activities, such as school or work, within one week of the surgery. However, they may need to wait longer than this before resuming exercise and other strenuous activities. The beauty of a Temecula chin implant is that while risks are minimal, the results of the surgery will last for the rest of one’s life.
Most patients love the difference that Temecula chin implants make in their faces. They will feel proud of their profiles, will love their stronger jawlines and will feel more confident and beautiful than ever before. If you believe that you would benefit from a chin implant surgery, we encourage you to make an appointment for a consultation today.
