Looking for a Defined, Attractive Facial Profile?
Genetics may bless some patients with proportional facial features, but for everyone else, The Piazza Center in Austin, TX, offers chin augmentation to artfully shape the chin and bring the rest of the face into better balance. Feeling dissatisfied with the way your face looks can have a real impact on self-esteem — Dr. Rocco Piazza and his team approach chin augmentation as a way to create harmony between the chin, jawline, and nose.
At a Glance
Two Ways to Augment the Chin
Chin Implant
Most chin augmentations are performed with a chin implant, typically made of medical-grade silicone and even custom-made when the procedure demands it. Chin implants look and feel completely natural, and once affixed in place, they do not move.
Mentoplasty / Genioplasty
The alternative is surgically contouring the chin bone itself. This is done judiciously, with Dr. Piazza and his team removing as little tissue as possible to achieve the desired look, often manipulating surrounding fibrous tissue as well to achieve aesthetic harmony.
Non-Surgical Alternative
Dermal fillers can recontour the chin and jawline in ways that rival surgical results, without an operation. Changes are temporary and require routine upkeep — some patients use fillers as a trial run before committing to chin augmentation surgery.
Recovery
- Dermal fillers require no downtime, though temporary swelling and redness are common
- Surgical chin augmentation requires 1–2 weeks of downtime on average
- A closely monitored healing process includes follow-up visits with your surgeon
Why Choose Chin Augmentation
A more balanced,
harmonious profile.
When done by a board-certified, seasoned plastic surgeon, a chin augmentation can bring the entire face into better proportion — refining the profile without looking overdone.

Natural, Lasting Results
Implants look and feel completely natural and, once affixed, do not move.
Is chin augmentation
right for you?
As time progresses, the soft tissue of the face sags due to increased skin laxity, gravity, and looser muscle tone. Dermal fillers are a great option, but there comes a point when their effectiveness is negligible — that is often when a surgical chin augmentation is recommended. The best way to know for sure is an in-depth consultation with a board-certified Piazza Center plastic surgeon, who will listen to your goals and examine your face before recommending a course of treatment.
