Chin Augmentation in Seoul | Gangnam Arc Plastic Surgery Clinic & Cost

What is Chin Augmentation?

Chin augmentation, also known as chin implants or genioplasty, is a procedure designed to enhance the appearance of the chin by adding volume, improving shape, and achieving facial harmony. This procedure can create a more balanced profile and is ideal for patients seeking to correct a recessed chin, weak chin structure, or disproportionate facial features.

At Arc Plastic Surgery Clinic in Gangnam, Seoul, our expert surgeons specialize in chin augmentation to provide you with a more defined, symmetrical, and youthful profile. Whether you are looking for a subtle improvement or a more dramatic change, we offer personalized approaches to meet your aesthetic goals.

Who is a Good Candidate for Chin Augmentation?

You may be a good candidate for chin augmentation if you:
✔ Are unhappy with the appearance of a recessed or weak chin
✔ Desire a more balanced, defined profile
✔ Have facial asymmetry that affects your chin area
✔ Are in good health with realistic expectations about your results
✔ Want to avoid more invasive surgical methods but still seek enhanced chin definition

A consultation at Arc Plastic Surgery Clinic will help determine the best approach based on your unique facial structure and desired results.

How is Chin Augmentation Performed?

Chin augmentation can be performed using chin implants or through bone advancement surgery (genioplasty), depending on your needs and preferences.

1. Consultation & Planning

• A thorough consultation with your surgeon will involve a discussion of your aesthetic goals, and 3D imaging technology may be used to visualize potential outcomes.

2. Surgical Procedure

• Chin Implant Surgery: A small incision is made under the chin or inside the mouth, and a biocompatible implant is placed to enhance the chin's size and shape.
• Genioplasty (Bone Advancement): In cases where more significant adjustments are needed, the chin bone is repositioned to create a more balanced look.

Both procedures are typically performed under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia, depending on the complexity of the surgery.

3. Closure & Recovery

• Sutures are placed carefully to minimize scarring, especially in the case of the under-the-chin incision.
• Compression bandages or dressings may be applied to support the healing process.

The procedure usually takes 1 to 2 hours, depending on the approach used.

Recovery & Aftercare

After chin augmentation, the recovery process is relatively smooth, though there are some important steps to ensure proper healing.

Recovery Timeline:

• Swelling & Bruising: Mild swelling and bruising are common and typically resolve within 1–2 weeks.
• Return to Work/Daily Activities: You can return to work and most normal activities within 7–10 days, though any strenuous activity or exercise should be avoided for 2–3 weeks.
• Final Results: The full results of chin augmentation will be visible within 1 to 3 months, once any residual swelling subsides and the chin has fully settled into its new position.

Follow-up appointments will be scheduled to monitor progress and ensure optimal healing.

Benefits of Chin Augmentation

✔ Improves facial balance and proportion
