What To Expect On The Day Of Chin Implant?
On the day of your Chin Implant surgery in Boston, MA, you can expect a comfortable and efficient experience. Your procedure is our own, and we leave no stone unturned to tailor it to your specific needs.
Before the surgery, you will be administered anesthesia to ensure your comfort throughout the procedure. Dr. Tandon will then make a carefully placed incision, typically either under the chin or inside the mouth, to create a pocket for the implant. The implant, which is chosen based on your desired outcome and facial structure, will be carefully inserted and positioned to enhance the contour and projection of your chin.
After the implant is securely in place, Dr. Tandon will close the incisions with sutures. He will take great care to ensure minimal scarring and a natural-looking result.
Types of Implants:
Silicone Implants
These are made of a soft, solid silicone material that closely resembles natural tissues. Silicone implants offer a natural feel and are available in various sizes and shapes to achieve the desired chin contour.
Medpor Implants
Medpor implants are made of a porous polyethylene material. They allow for tissue ingrowth, which helps to anchor the implant and provide long-term stability. Medpor implants are often chosen for their durability and resistance to degradation over time.
Gore-Tex Implants
Gore-Tex implants are made of a biocompatible material. They are often preferred for their ability to integrate with the surrounding tissues and their long-lasting results.
Custom Implants
In some cases, a custom chin implant may be recommended to achieve optimal results. These implants are designed based on precise measurements and three-dimensional imaging of the patient’s facial anatomy.
Chin Implant Recovery
After your Chin Implant Surgery, it’s common to feel slight discomfort along with some swelling. This is completely normal and should subside in the following weeks. To manage discomfort, we may prescribe pain medications or recommend over-the-counter pain relievers. It is important to rest and avoid strenuous activities for a few weeks to allow the chin to heal properly. Additionally, maintaining a soft or liquid diet, practicing good oral hygiene, and attending scheduled follow-up appointments will contribute to a smooth and successful recovery.

Chin Implant FAQS
When it comes to your comfort, we spare no expense. Local anesthesia or general anesthesia is used to ensure that you are comfortable and pain-free. Dr. Tandon will provide you with detailed information about pain management and answer any specific questions you may have about pain during the recovery period.
The number of appointments required for a Chin Implant procedure may vary depending on your specific needs and the treatment plan determined by Dr. Tandon. The actual implant procedure is performed in a single session. Post-operative appointments are then scheduled to monitor your healing progress and address any concerns or questions you may have. The exact number of appointments will be based on your circumstances, which our Patient Coordinator would be happy to provide after consultation.
The timeline for seeing the results of your Chin Implant procedure can vary from person to person. As the swelling goes down, you will start to notice the contour and shape of your chin improving. However, it may take several months for the final results to become fully apparent. This is because the tissues need time to heal, and the implant settles into its final position. It’s important to have patience during this period and follow instructions for optimal healing and results.
Of course! It is possible to double-up the aesthetics of your Chin Implant with other procedures depending on your specific goals and needs. Many patients choose to combine with other facial rejuvenation procedures to achieve more comprehensive results, including Facelifts, Brow Lifts, and non-surgical treatments like BOTOX or Dermal Fillers. Combining procedures can address multiple areas of concern and create a more harmonious and balanced facial appearance.
