Chin Augmentation in Lone Tree, CO
Whether you’re seeking to slenderize by creating a more sweetheart or oval shape to the face, reduce the relative prominence of the nose, strengthen the definition of the jawline, or balance the profile of your face, overall facial harmony.
Dr. Tanya Atagi, a board-certified plastic surgeon in Lone Tree, Colorado, uses advanced surgical techniques to create natural-looking chin enhancement that complements your unique facial structure. Whether you’re seeking to balance your profile or strengthen your jawline definition, our personalized approach helps you achieve your aesthetic goals with confidence.
What Is Chin Augmentation?
A weak or receding chin can make your nose appear larger, create an unbalanced profile, or give the appearance of a double chin. This facial proportion imbalance often stems from genetics, where the lower jaw simply didn’t develop as prominently as other facial features.
Chin augmentation, also called mentoplasty, addresses these concerns by surgically enhancing the size and projection of your chin. The procedure involves placing a carefully selected implant over the existing chin bone. The result is improved facial balance that brings your entire profile into better harmony.
At Atagi Plastic Surgery & Skin Aesthetics in Lone Tree, Colorado, Dr. Atagi takes a comprehensive approach to facial analysis, ensuring that your chin enhancement works seamlessly with your existing features rather than creating an obvious surgical appearance.
Who Benefits from Chin Augmentation?
The best candidates for chin augmentation can be patients who feel their chin lacks definition or proportion relative to their other facial features, see a lack of definition along the jawline, feel their cheeks full or nose is outsized relative to the face, overall.
You might be a good candidate if you notice:
- Your profile appears unbalanced
- Your neck seems to blend into your chin
- Your nose looks disproportionately large compared to your lower face
Dr. Atagi evaluates each patient individually, considering factors like bone structure, skin elasticity, and overall facial proportions. Whether you’re in your twenties seeking enhanced definition or an older patient addressing age-related changes in facial structure, chin augmentation can be tailored to meet your specific needs and goals.

What to Expect During Your Chin Augmentation
Consultation
Dr. Atagi conducts a thorough facial analysis, discusses your aesthetic goals, and explains surgical options to help you understand what to expect.
Treatment
The procedure typically takes 2 hours or so under general anesthesia. Dr. Atagi creates a relatively short incision under the chin, then positions and secures the implant against the jawbone for optimal positioning.
Aftercare
Results
Your new profile will be noticeable immediately following your procedure. This said, final results become apparent over 9-12 months as swelling resolves. Your chin will feel more firm following placement of your implant.
Comprehensive Rejuvenation
Skincare
Physician-grade skincare products can be transformative in and of themselves by evening skin tone, increasing collagen production, increasing skin turnover, and decreasing pigment production.
Lasers / RF Microneedling / Peels
These impactful surface treatments can give you the hallmark of youthful skin: the fresh polish of smooth, healthy skin.
Volume Restoration
Replacing the youthful “apples in the cheeks” can relieve the tired, sagging, sallow appearance of an aging aesthetic.
Skin Tightening
Increasing the collagen content contributes to a youthful, healthy aesthetic by improving the tone and tightness of the skin.

Dr. Atagi typically uses silicone implants for chin augmentation, which are available in various sizes and shapes to complement different facial structures. These implants are designed to feel natural and integrate well with your existing bone structure for long-lasting results.
Scarring from chin augmentation is minimal. Dr. Atagi creates the incision under the chin, strategically placed within natural shadowing to be inconspicuous. Any external scarring typically fades significantly over time, and we also provide silicone sheeting to help fade the scar.
Chin implants are designed to be permanent and can last a lifetime with proper placement and care. The silicone material is biocompatible and maintains its shape over time, providing lasting enhancement to your facial profile.
Chin augmentation can improve the appearance of a weak chin that contributes to a double chin look, especially when the issue is related to bone structure rather than excess fat or skin. Dr. Atagi evaluates each patient individually to determine if chin augmentation alone will achieve your goals or if additional procedures might be beneficial.
Chin augmentation can often be combined with other facial procedures to achieve optimal facial balance and harmony. Many patients pair it with facelifts, necklifts, or liposuction of the neck for comprehensive facial rejuvenation. Dr. Atagi discusses combination procedures during your consultation to create a personalized treatment plan that addresses your specific aesthetic goals.
