Question:
I am male, 26 years old, and would like chin augmentation. How long do the effects of this surgery last? What do you use to augment the chin, an implant or fat transfer?
Answer:
We usually use an implant to augment the chin if that is the only concern, but if a patient is looking for a temporary result without down-time then filler can be used. Fat is only used for a chin augmentation if the patient is having a fat transfer to the entire face and wants a chin augmentation as well. The effects of implant surgery are permanent.
