Chin Implant in Wilmington, NY | Summit Plastic Surgery & Derm

Understanding Chin Implant Procedures

The shape and position of the chin can significantly impact overall facial aesthetics. A small or recessed chin may create visual imbalances in facial proportions, potentially exaggerating the appearance of the nose or mouth area.

Customized Chin Augmentation Approach

Dr. Ricciardelli brings over 25 years of facial surgery experience to create natural-looking chin enhancements. The goal is to achieve subtle yet transformative changes that restore facial harmony.

Surgical Procedure Details

• Soft, flexible, biocompatible implant insertion
• Small, well-concealed incision under the chin
• Procedure typically takes 1-2 hours
• Minimal recovery time (average 4 days)

Non-Surgical Alternative

For patients not ready for surgical intervention, dermal fillers offer an excellent non-surgical chin augmentation option. Dr. Ricciardelli can help determine the most appropriate approach during consultation.

Combining Procedures for Comprehensive Results

Chin augmentation can be strategically combined with complementary procedures such as rhinoplasty, neck liposuction, or facelift to achieve comprehensive facial balance and aesthetic goals.

Candidate Considerations

Ideal candidates include individuals with:

• Small or receding chin
• Desire to improve facial proportions
• Realistic expectations about surgical outcomes

Expert Surgical Approach

Dr. Ricciardelli's unique expertise includes board certification in both head, neck, and facial surgery and plastic surgery, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of facial anatomy and aesthetic refinement.
