You may benefit if you:

• Have a recessed or weak chin that affects facial balance

• Want stronger jawline definition or improved lower-face contour

• Are refining your look after weight loss or aging

• Are healthy with realistic expectations

Your consultation includes facial analysis and discussion of options such as chin implant, jaw contouring, or fat grafting.

Treatment may include:

• Chin implant – adds structure via a discreet incision under the chin or inside the mouth

• Fat grafting – softens hollows and enhances contour with your own tissue

• Jawline contouring – sculpts angles and reduces bulk for symmetry

• Neck lipo-contouring – may be added to enhance definition

Performed under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia, this outpatient procedure is customized to your goals.

Every surgical journey at Meadowlark begins with thoughtful preparation. Prior to your procedure, our team will guide you through a personalized plan that supports optimal healing and confidence:

• Medical-Grade Skincare: Tailored regimens to strengthen skin barrier function, reduce inflammation, and support even healing. Often includes antioxidants, exfoliants, or targeted hydration.

• Laser Pre-Treatment (if appropriate): Halo™ or BBL® laser therapy may be recommended for patients with scarring, textural irregularities, or skin tone concerns. This primes the skin for smoother post-op results.

• Collaborative Surgical Planning: Your Plastic Surgeon works closely with our Cosmetic Nurses and Laser Specialists to align timing, skin health, and follow-up care—creating a seamless, team-driven approach.

Most patients:

• Resume daily activity within 5–7 days

• Return to full activity by 3–4 weeks

• See results begin to emerge in 2–3 weeks

• Enjoy continued improvement as tissues settle over 2–4 months

Healing is supported with:

• Cold compresses and head elevation for the first few days

• Soft diet and movement adjustments for comfort

• Incision care under the chin or inside the mouth

• Cosmetic Team support for skin tone, firmness, and long-term contour
