Role of the Chin in Defining and Enhancing the Overall Facial Structure

The chin is a very important part of the face. It gives a definition to the lower half of the facial structure. Sex determines the structures of the chin. Males have prominent chins while females have a more delicate chin.

A weak chin in males leads to a feminine appearance. The opposite holds true for the opposite sex. A prominent chin can lead to a masculine appearance in females. Everyone gives a lot of importance to the shape and form of their chin. The chin also plays an integral role in facelift surgery.

Chin implants are used to often augment the chin for patients with weak chins. This can either be through autografts or through customized allografts. Autografts offer very good results as they are harvested from the patient.
