Keep your chin up, you’re going to look amazing

Achieve your ideal profile with a chin implant

Have you felt like your face lacks a certain balance? Through either chin implants or genioplasty (surgical chin reshaping), we can help improve a weak or receding chin to help you address the effects of an unbalanced profile. These procedures can help in ways you might not consider, like making your nose appear smaller and your neck more defined.

At Renuance San Diego (Rancho Bernardo), our chin implants can help with:

Stronger, more defined jawline contours

Enhanced facial proportions and symmetry

Reduced appearance of a "weak" chin

Better nose-to-chin balance

Improved neck-to-chin definition

Correction of chin asymmetries or irregularities

Outcome was excellent. Improved my quality of life and overall appearance. Staff was always friendly and helpful. Only thing I can suggest is patient pick up. Need to work on coordination of patient pick up and inform spouse or whoever is picking up patient on the recovery and when a good time to arrive for pickup. have the Lobby open for them and make sure they are comfortable and cared for...this is a stressful situation for anyone waiting to pickup a patient in particular a spouse.

Receptionist was very pleasant and upbeat. Wait time was around five minutes. Coordinator was very welcoming and extremely knowledgeable and thorough. Wait time was approx one minute for Dr Ford. She is so personable and happy. She is highly intelligent and extremely focused. She truly cares and wants to give me exactly what I want. I did not feel rushed in any way. My next meeting with the coordinator was very pleasant. She is so organized and gave me everything I needed to make the right choice for me. They really cared every step of the way.

Dr appeared to be sincere in trying to fix the problem. And confirmed what I thought needed to be done.

Dr. Ford was easy to talk to and gave me a all the information I needed to make a decision. She was very thorough in her description of what she would be able to do in the procedure.

Dr. Debbie is AMAZING! She was very thorough in her assessment and has such a gentle hand. She is also super sweet, knowledgeable, kind, and fun! I have seen her previously for my lips and I recommend her to everyone!

Dr. Eichenberg is a first class surgeon and a lovely person. He answered my questions patiently and thoroughly and I felt that he truly understood the nature of some of my concerns and addressed them well. I had some specific concerns about the size and location of my mini tummy tuck scar and he did his best to minimize its size. He also performed lower blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery) and my eyes and face look amazing. Two months post surgery, the scars are almost completely invisible and the bags and undereye sagging are gone. My skin is smooth and tight and I look half my age. I am extremely pleased with the work Dr. Eichenberg did for me and I would (and have) recommend him to family and friends. His staff is also well trained, helpful and easy to deal with. All in all, an excellent surgical experience!

I took my time and researched the procedures that interested me, then spent many hours cold calling, scrolling thru internet sites for said services, interviewing/meeting with physicians and their staff. And it paid off, that’s how I found Dr. Hill. He is an artist, skilled beyond description. His staff are highly educated and motivated individuals whom always kept my health and comfort a priority. His surgical team are the elite of their profession, many military veterans, and added comfort. Dr Hill and all the members of Renuance changed my life. I feel very close to them all, and am so thankful to have made this journey in their very graceful company. Dr Hill IS THE BEST!

Really like Dr. Debbie. She is very experienced, informative and never pushes additional treatments than what I need. Didn't have a great experience in the past with another provider. Great results, just what I was looking for. Natural and subtle

My implants were 21 years old and one of them finally popped. After meeting with Dr Ford i knew I had my Dr. From consultation to last check up, she has been amazing. She listened to what I wanted, gave me above and beyond what I asked for and she cares so much about you and your outcome. Always there to answer questions i may have no matter how crazy it sounded and she put me at ease where my concerns about my ruptured implants may have bordered a lil loopy at times. Always so professional and honestly, I will sing her praises from the rooftops but a special consideration to the rest of the staff also. They were all so very helpful and caring. I really recommend Dr Ford and team of magicians to everyone. I love my new girls. They are absolutely what I invisioned for myself and then some.

Doctor Hill is very kind and excellent bedside manner. He did a great job on my upper eye lids! So pleased with the entire experience!

Common Questions About Chin Enhancement

What's the difference between a chin implant and genioplasty?

A chin implant involves placing a carefully selected implant to enhance chin projection and shape. Genioplasty, alternatively, surgically repositions your natural chin bone. During your consultation, we’ll determine which approach better suits your anatomy and goals. Some patients benefit from combining both techniques.

How much does a chin implant or genioplasty cost?

Because everyone’s facial proportions and aesthetic goals are different, the price can vary on the extent of the procedure. This is why our initial phone screening and consultation are so important. By meeting with your coordinator and specialist, we will be able to jointly determine the best course of action and give you a clear idea of the price range for your procedure.

Will my results look obviously "done"?

Our philosophy centers on natural enhancement. We carefully select implant sizes and shapes – or plan genioplasty modifications – that complement your existing features rather than overpowering them. Most patients report that friends notice they look better but can’t pinpoint exactly what changed.

How long is recovery?

Most patients return to work within 5-7 days, though some swelling and tightness will persist longer. Initial swelling peaks around day 3-4, then gradually subsides. You’ll see your new profile emerging within weeks, with final results settling in over 3-4 months.

Is it painful?

Discomfort is typically mild to moderate and well-managed with prescribed medication. Most patients describe more of a tight, stretched sensation than sharp pain. Genioplasty patients might experience slightly more discomfort than implant patients, but both procedures are very tolerable.

What about scarring?

For chin implants, the incision is typically hidden inside your mouth or in a natural crease under your chin. Genioplasty incisions are always inside the mouth. Any external scars fade significantly and are typically barely noticeable within months.

Can I combine this with other procedures?

Absolutely. Chin enhancement often pairs beautifully with:

Rhinoplasty for complete profile balancing
Neck liposuction for enhanced definition
Facelift and necklift procedures for comprehensive rejuvenation We’ll discuss combination options during your consultation.

What makes someone a good candidate?

Ideal candidates:

Have realistic expectations about results
Are in good general health
Don’t smoke (or are willing to quit before surgery)
Have fully developed facial bones
Want to improve chin projection or position We’ll assess your specific situation during consultation.

How long do results last?

Chin implants typically last indefinitely, though they can be removed or replaced if desired. Genioplasty results are permanent since we’re modifying your natural bone structure. Both options age naturally with your face, maintaining harmony with your other features.

Why choose Renuance for chin enhancement?

Our approach combines advanced surgical expertise with artistic vision. Our diverse surgical team brings multiple perspectives to your enhancement, ensuring a result that looks natural from every angle. We’ve refined our techniques over thousands of procedures, yet we treat each patient as unique, deserving of a fully customized approach.
