Chin Enhancement

Louisville Chin Augmentation Specialist – Dr. Lee Corbett

As an exceptionally skilled Louisville plastic surgery specialist, Dr. Corbett offers patients an extensive array of facial beautification procedures, including chin augmentation. He recommends this procedure for individuals who desire to improve the symmetry of the face by enhancing a small chin. Even minor changes to the jaw line can dramatically alter the overall appearance of the face, allowing Louisville chin implant patients achieve a balanced, beautiful facial image.

Indications

The goal of the surgery is to bring the chin into better balance with the rest of the face. More often than not this procedure is combined with nose reshaping surgery (rhinoplasty). Many patients feel like they have a ‘weak’ chin when the size of the nose is more of a factor.

Goals of Surgery
