The Los Angeles Mentoplasty Marvel

The Los Angeles Mentoplasty Marvel

September 26, 2011 By Carlo Honrado

Your chin is the foundation of your face, and the feature that sets the proportions for everything else.  Many people do not realize that a weak chin can easily throw off the balance of your appearance, creating the illusion of an oversized nose and a fearful posture.  Thankfully there is an easy way to correct this imbalance permanently: a safe procedure known as a mentoplasty.

Cosmetic mentoplasties have been around for quite some time, but it wasn’t until the last decade that medical synthetic materials caught up with the procedure itself.  Today’s chin implants are utterly indistinguishable from natural tissue – they give, contort, and extend just as your natural face does.  This means you can have this procedure done without looking like you are carrying around a bionic appendage; indeed, many of my clients never even reveal they have had this surgery to new people they meet.

But the changes that result can be extraordinary.  A more defined chin is widely associated with courage and resolve, and in women this feature is often sharpest in youth.  With proper planning and care, you can count upon your mentoplasty to restore confidence and vigor to your everyday life  – all in the space of a single afternoon.

To learn more about our unique approach to Los Angeles mentoplasty, please don’t hesitate to contact my cosmetic surgery offices today.  We offer superior experience and always place a premium on strong communication before, during, and after your procedure.
