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

Real Chin Implants / Genioplasty Before and After Photos

Beautiful office with on site tour of the OR. All staff very friendly to me and my toddler. Doctor was very down to earth. The appointment went efficiently to make use of my time but also thoroughly.
Dr. Debbie is the best! Very thorough, patient and makes you feel comfortable during your treatment.
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.
The team was highly professional and answered all my (sometimes ridiculous) questions. From the very first meeting, I was put at ease knowing I could be fully informed of the procedure, the recovery, and the outcome/results. I especially am grateful for Angelina who was very responsive with all my inquiries. The single best thing is that I feel so pleased with my results, I feel 20 years younger, I feel that my results are amongst the best I could ask for, within reason, and I feel like I have a renewed sense of self. That is hard to put into words, but its really about how you feel about yourself, not what others think of you. I feel that my procedure has given me a better match on my outside to what I feel like on the inside - which is young and energetic.
"I wish I could give Renuance Cosmetic Surgery Center a 10 star vs. a 5 star because they are truly AMAZING. My experience with Dr. Eichenberg, Angelica, Vinny, Jacob, Shannon and the ENTIRE staff, was a remarkable experience. Every time I walked through their doors, they treated me with the utmost care and took the time to access my needs, questions, and truly made me feel like a valued patient of theirs. I had a breast augmentation procedure conducted by the one and only (& THE BEST) Dr. Eichenberg, and I couldn't be more thrilled with my results. I cannot emphasize enough how incredible of a doctor he is and the staff that works alongside of him. I have been referring numerous friends and family members to Renuance because of how astounding of a team they are...& I won't stop referring :)!! Thank you, Dr. Eichenberg and the Renuance team for such a wonderful experience. I cannot wait to come back to you all in the near future! XO"
Doctor Debbie is absolutely WONDERFUL!!! No one else will ever touch my face but Doctor Debbie. no one.
Hello, from the moment I walked into the office I was greeted with so much warmth. The entire staff is very welcoming and Dr. E did an amazing job making me feel comfortable with my decision to remove breast implants!!! Highly recommend this office and Dr. E [Single best thing is...] Dr E was very thorough and made me feel quite comfortable during my surgery. I was awake during the entire procedure while my breast implants were removed.
I got exactly what I asked for, and nobody tried to talk me into anything I wasn’t inquiring about. Dr. Ford is genuine and knowledgeable! She is so kind and is extremely trustworthy.
From consultation to post-op everything was amazing. All of my questions were answered, everyone has been so kind, all appointments, including surgery day, were exactly on time with no waiting. I couldn't have asked for a better plastic surgeon, Dr. Ford is incredible and I would highly recommend her to anybody seeking plastic surgery. I'm so happy with my end result, truly the best money I have ever spent.
From the beginning Angelica kept me up to date on what to expect. Dr. Eichenberg was always ready to listen and took the time to answer any questions I had. The day of the procedure everyone involved, from the nurses to the anesthesiologist, was very professional, accommodating and kind. It is apparent that Dr. Eichenberg takes his patients satisfaction seriously. Addressing every concern with patience.

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.
