anesthesia. Dr. Lynch creates a small incision either inside the lower
lip or beneath the chin, allowing precise implant placement to achieve
optimal facial balance.

	* Sliding osteotomy (bone repositioning)

RECOVERY AND EXPECTATIONS

Patients can expect minimal discomfort managed with oral medication.
Swelling and tenderness typically subside within one to two months,

CHIN IMPLANT IN HUNT VALLEY, MD | SAMUEL HAHN, MD, FACS

WHAT IS A CHIN IMPLANT?

Chin implants, or chin augmentation, is a surgical procedure designed
to improve the size, shape, and projection of the chin. Carefully
crafted to fit each patient's unique anatomy, these implants enhance
overall facial balance. Chin implants are particularly beneficial for
individuals with a recessed or underdeveloped chin, helping create a
more defined and attractive jawline.

BENEFITS OF CHIN AUGMENTATION

Chin surgery offers several permanent advantages over non-surgical
options:

 	* Improved chin projection
	* Harmonious facial features
	* Permanent aesthetic results
	* Reduced "double chin" appearance
	* Defined facial profile
	* Corrected facial asymmetry
	* More youthful facial contours

CHIN IMPLANT PROCEDURE IN HUNT VALLEY

The facial implant procedure involves creating a small incision either
inside the mouth or underneath the chin. Board-certified plastic
surgeon Dr. Hahn carefully positions the implant to enhance chin shape
and projection. The procedure typically takes one to two hours and is
performed under general or local anesthesia with sedation.

IDEAL CANDIDATES FOR CHIN IMPLANTS

Ideal candidates are individuals dissatisfied with their chin's size
or shape, seeking a more balanced profile. During consultation, Dr.
Hahn evaluates facial aesthetics, proportions, skin type, and overall
health to develop a personalized treatment plan.

RECOVERY AND DOWNTIME

Recovery from a chin implant is typically straightforward. Most
patients resume normal activities within a week. Initial symptoms like
swelling and bruising subside within a few days. Patients are advised
to keep their head elevated and avoid strenuous activities for two
weeks.

CONSULTATION AND COST

The cost of a chin implant varies based on surgical complexity and
additional procedures. During your consultation, Dr. Hahn will provide
a detailed cost breakdown and discuss potential financing options.
