Chin augmentation can also be referred to as ‘chin enlargement’ or ‘chin enhancement’. When this procedure is approached surgically, it involves the insertion of implants. This simple procedure places the implants at appropriate places to support the structure of the jaw without altering the patient’s anatomy, so the chin protrudes in line with the nose and mouth. Other procedures such as injectable fillers can be used in combination with implants to create a more defined look.
Our treatments for the face and eyes are carried out under general anaesthetic. Here at The REAL Clinic, we use total intravenous anaesthesia as it has greater potential benefits compared to other forms of anaesthesia. Intravenous anaesthesia is more rapid in onset, and elimination which allows for speedier recovery. Further benefits include; increased haemodynamic stability (stabilised blood flow), decreased risk of organ toxicity, decrease in surgical haemostasis (bleeding), reduced risk of postoperative nausea and vomiting, and improved, more predictable recovery.
