A chin augmentation helps to refine the jawline and add balance to facial features. Using a custom-fit, biocompatible chin implant, Dr. Parker helps men in Paramus, Ridgewood, Hackensack, Mahwah, Somerset, and other Bergen County and North New Jersey communities add definition to a weak or receding chin.
Featured
A “weak chin” can make an appropriately sized nose and other facial features stand out. It can also cause men to be very dissatisfied with their profile. The surgical insertion of a chin implant, called “chin augmentation,” can improve your profile by creating better facial balance.
There are many different sizes and shapes for the chin implant, so you can achieve the specific look you desire. Computer imaging can be used to assist you in making this important decision. The silicone material of the implant also looks and feels very similar to bone, so the result is a very natural looking, natural feeling and defined chin.
We believe plastic surgery should be accessible to as many people as possible. That’s why we offer financing through lenders that specialize in setting up payment plans for elective cosmetic surgery. We can discuss financing during your consultation.

Chin augmentation can be done by itself to build out a weak chin, or in conjunction with other procedures to balance the face. Rhinoplasty to improve the shape of the nose is one of the most popular procedures for men. Surgical procedures to improve the jaw and neckline, such as liposuction of the neck, face lift, or neck lift can further enhance the results of chin implant surgery for men. The following photos demonstrate how these procedures complement the results of chin augmentation.
Chin implant surgery takes about 20 minutes, and can be done under local anesthesia with sedation. Dr. Parker makes a ¾ inch incision, hidden just beneath the chin. The tissue is gently stretched until enough room is created for the implant, which will lie directly on the bone. Dr. Parker inserts a custom-selected silicone chin implant into the newly created space, directly on the jawbone. Finally, small sutures are used to close the incision.
Consultations at the Parker Center are special. Dr. Parker will spend extra time with you, ensuring that he understands your goals and that you are fully educated about each potential solution. Additionally, our imaging expert will help you see the possibilities with digital photo imaging to show you what you will look like after surgery. Patients who are comparing providers often tell us our consults are the most thorough and informative they’ve ever experienced!
One to two weeks before your scheduled chin augmentation, you will undergo a one-hour, in-office, face-to-face education session with one of Dr. Parker’s Nurse Educators. During this session, the nurse educator thoroughly reviews a detailed information packet to further educate you about your chin augmentation. This includes a discussion of what to do to prepare for surgery, what occurs on the day of surgery, and what to expect after surgery during your recovery. It’s a detailed session that really educates our patients about the entire surgical process at the Parker Center. Patients tell us they love it because they feel so well-prepared for their surgery. Learn more about what to expect during your pre-op education session.
Our Signature
Our surgical procedures, anesthesia, medications, and aftercare are tailored to minimize post-operative discomfort and accelerate recuperation.
Learn MoreMost of our male patients lead active lives and are anxious to return to their activities as soon as possible after surgery. With that in mind, we have tailored our surgical procedures, anesthesia, and medications, and developed our Rapid Recovery peri-operative program to optimize the recovery process. While everyone heals differently, most men are ready to return to work within 3-4 days after surgery and resume exercise in 1-2 weeks. There is little if any pain, and swelling and discoloration subside within several days
Sutures are removed within 5 days. For approximately 6 weeks, it is important to avoid activity that could jar or bump your chin. The scar tissue that forms around your implant is crucial to keeping it in place. It must remain undisturbed until you are fully healed.

Read MoreWhile beauty may only be skin deep, for years, well-balanced facial features have been considered a sign of physical beauty. A well defined and strong chin provides harmony with the cheek bones, nose, jaw line and neck.
