Chin Implants Are Becoming As Popular As Nose Jobs

Chin Implants Are Becoming As Popular As Nose JobsIt used to be that when you thought about plastic surgery, you thought of nose jobs, breast augmentations and tummy tucks. However, more and more procedures are increasing in popularity these days. One such procedure is the chin implant, otherwise known as the chinplant. In 2012, this procedure eclipsed all others as the fastest growing plastic surgery choice in the United States.

Gallery of Cosmetic Surgery, a center for facial and plastic surgery in Newport Beach, California, has been performing this chin implant procedure, known medically as a chin augmentation, for many years. It has always been a popular choice at the practice given the fact that it produces dramatic results improving the overall look and age of a person’s face. During this procedure, surgical implants are used to help restore the entire outline of a person’s face. Often, when a patient at this practice chooses to have a chin augmentation done they have other procedures done as well, such as a rhinoplasty procedure.

It’s not just at the Newport Beach California practice that chin augmentation procedures are becoming more popular, during the year 2011; 10,000 men and 10,000 women had chin augmentation procedures done, an increase of more than 70 percent from the year before.

This procedure eclipsed a variety of other plastic surgery procedures in 2011, including liposuction, Botox and breast augmentations. Typically, patients who prefer this procedure are in their mid-40s to mid-50s, with a few patients older than and younger than those ages having this procedure done.

Plastic surgeons have noted this trend and have a few explanations for the rise in chin implants. For one, the chin and jaw line are one of the first part’s of a person’s face that will begin to show signs of aging. This makes a person self conscious, and since it is a relatively easy procedure that has dramatic results, chin implants are a great choice. In addition, more and more people looked at themselves through different view points. With photos of people being posted online daily, and many people using technology to video conference with people across the globe, there has never been a bigger emphasize on a youthful appearance. This is one main reason that doctors are saying that many people are choosing this procedure.
