Chin Augmentation Surgery
Personalised surgery. Natural-looking results. Consultant-led care.
A well-defined chin plays an important role in creating facial balance and harmony. Chin augmentation is a cosmetic procedure designed to enhance the shape, size and projection of the chin, improving the profile and creating better proportion between the chin, nose and jawline.
At Battersea Hospital, our experienced consultant plastic surgeons provide personalised chin augmentation procedures using advanced techniques to deliver natural-looking, balanced results that complement your unique facial features.
BOOK A CONSULTATION MEET OUR SURGEONSWhat is Chin Augmentation?
Chin augmentation, also known as genioplasty or chin enhancement, is a cosmetic procedure that improves the shape and projection of the chin. The procedure is commonly performed using a carefully selected silicone implant, although in some cases the chin bone itself can be repositioned to achieve the desired result.
A small or recessed chin can affect the balance of the entire face, making the nose appear larger or reducing the definition of the jawline. Chin augmentation enhances facial proportions by creating stronger definition and improving profile symmetry.
The procedure is highly personalised, with your consultant plastic surgeon carefully assessing your facial anatomy before recommending the most suitable approach. Every treatment is tailored to complement your natural features rather than dramatically changing your appearance.
Chin augmentation is frequently combined with rhinoplasty or facial contouring procedures to create a more harmonious and balanced facial profile.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything You Need to Know.
Appointments and Consultations
What can chin augmentation improve?
Chin augmentation enhances chin projection, improves jawline definition and creates better balance between the chin, nose and other facial features.
Will I have a chin implant?
Many chin augmentation procedures use a medical-grade silicone implant, although some patients may be better suited to surgical repositioning of the chin bone. Your surgeon will recommend the most appropriate option during your consultation.
Will my results look natural?
Yes. Every procedure is carefully planned to complement your existing facial features, creating subtle improvements that look balanced and proportionate.
Will there be visible scars?
Incisions are usually placed inside the mouth or discreetly beneath the chin, making any scars minimally visible once healed.
How long is the recovery?
Most patients return to work and normal daily activities within seven to ten days. More strenuous activities should be avoided for approximately four weeks.
Can chin augmentation be combined with other procedures?
Yes. Chin augmentation is commonly combined with rhinoplasty, neck lift or facelift surgery to improve overall facial harmony and profile balance.
Is chin augmentation permanent?
Yes. Surgical chin augmentation provides long-lasting results, whether performed using an implant or by repositioning the chin bone.
When will I see my final results?
You'll notice an improvement immediately after surgery, although swelling will gradually settle over the following weeks. Final results are typically visible within two to three months.
