Indications for chin augmentation
Chin augmentation is an aesthetic procedure designed to harmonize the facial profile by modifying the shape and projection of the chin. This procedure can be considered for both men and women to correct various aspects of the chin that affect facial balance and aesthetics:
- A small, receding chin.
- Chin deformity.
- Asymmetrical jawline.
- Unbalanced facial structure.
In addition to these aesthetic indications, mentoplasty may also be considered for functional reasons, particularly in cases of:
- Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders: Jaw misalignment combined with an abnormal chin position can lead to TMJ pain and dysfunction.
- Sleep apnea: A chin that's too far back can obstruct the airway, causing sleep problems and breathing difficulties.
Chin augmentation techniques in Turkey
Two main techniques are available in Turkey to augment your chin and harmonize your facial profile:
Mentoplasty (implant placement)
Suitable for people with receding, poorly protruding, or receding chins, mentoplasty involves the insertion of a prosthetic implant made of silicone or biocompatible material. The implant is placed under the chin through an incision made inside the mouth for a discreet, natural result.
The procedure is performed in the operating room under general anesthesia, usually on an outpatient basis (same-day discharge).
During the procedure, the surgeon makes an incision in the inside of the mouth, peels it away from the bone, and places the chin implant. The implant is fixed with a screw and the mucosa is sutured with absorbable stitches that disappear after 20 days.
Non-invasive alternative: Hyaluronic acid injection
Perfect for moderate chin augmentation or contour correction, this non-invasive technique uses injections of hyaluronic acid, a substance found naturally in the body.
On the day of the procedure, the doctor injects the hyaluronic acid into the chin and performs a light facial massage to distribute the product evenly over the chin. The procedure is quick, completed in 30 minutes, and the results are immediate and natural.
Chin fat transfer (lipofilling)
Chin Lipofilling is designed for people who need a slight correction of a receding chin. The procedure involves taking fat from an area of the body where it is in excess, such as the abdomen or thighs, cleaning it, and then re-injecting it into the chin.
This increases the volume of the chin, with natural results.
Precautions to take after the procedure
To optimize results and minimize side effects, take the following precautions:
- Avoid exposure to sunlight and heat from saunas or steam rooms.
- Avoid drinking alcohol or taking aspirin in the days following the injections.
- Do not move your face by massaging or grimacing.
In addition to these general instructions, your doctor in Turkey can give you specific instructions depending on your case and health condition.

Chin augmentation results
Today's advances and techniques in chin augmentation in Turkey allow us to achieve excellent natural and aesthetic results.
Hyaluronic acid should be the first choice, especially for patients with minimal asymmetry. A single session is all that's needed for immediate, natural results. The procedure is non-invasive, leaves no scarring, and preserves the natural texture of the chin.
Unlike fat injections, whose effects gradually fade over several years, implant augmentation offers long-lasting results.
For more extensive augmentation with implant mentoplasty, the final result is achieved in 6 months, with a gradual improvement of 50% at 1 month and 80% at 3 months.
Risks & complications
Like most surgeries, the use of prosthetic devices may lead to complications. These may include
- infections
- oral inability
- displacement of the prosthesis
- damage to the mental nerve
- bone resorption.
Among these, bone resorption is the most concerning complication. This occurs because the chin is a highly dynamic area that is frequently exposed to movements of the lips and mouth.
