Before a chin implant, a fair question to put to any practice is this: who examines my chin at the consultation, and is that the same person who will be holding the implant? It matters because the whole plan is made at that examination: reading the profile against the line from the lower lip, judging the bone and the soft tissue over it, choosing a standard, extended, or hand-carved implant, and deciding whether the incision goes inside the mouth or under the chin. If someone other than the surgeon does that part, the surgeon inherits a plan he did not make. Troell Cosmetic Surgery & Facial Plastic Clinic is a cosmetic and facial plastic surgery practice in Las Vegas, on South Fort Apache Road, with one surgeon. Dr. Robert J. Troell does the chin augmentation consultation himself, at no charge, plans the operation with the patient, places and trims the implant himself, and sees that patient at every follow-up visit in the same office where the consultation and the surgery took place. Our guide to chin augmentation, with implant types, incisions, and the week-by-week recovery, is on our website — tap Learn More to start there.
