Why is chin augmentation sometimes recommended in combination with nose surgery?
Though some people fail to notice the importance of the chin to overall facial balance, it is extremely important. A weak chin can make a large nose look larger than it really is simply because of facial proportions. By adding a small implant to the chin in a straightforward surgical procedure, a surgeon can greatly diminish the prominence of the nose. For this reason, Dr. Robinson occasionally recommends chin augmentation to his rhinoplasty patients. Viewing before-and-after photos of the procedure on this website or in his office may also help you to see the surprisingly dramatic improvement that can be achieved by subtly enlarging the chin. If a chin implant would be beneficial, Dr. Robinson will inform you in his Atlanta and Dunwoody-area offices during your nose surgery consultation.
