Before Surgery After Surgery For people with a small or receding chin, the most common operation is the chin implant. As the chin becomes larger, the profile appears more attractive, with a more elegant jaw line and neck. This procedure is often performed in combination with nasal surgery, to balance the profile, because correcting a receding chin helps to make the nose appear smaller. The implant is usually inserted through a small incision inside the lower lip. Chin implant surgery is often done as an office procedure under local anesthesia.
Recovery is usually rapid.
