Though perhaps not as obvious as the nose or eyes, the contours of the jaw line, chin, and cheekbones are important factors in the overall symmetry of the face.

A receding chin or irregular jaw line is a common concern among patients seeking a chin or jaw (pre-jowl) implant. This problem can be surgically improved with the use of a synthetic implant specifically designed to correct the defect in question. A similar device can be implanted in the cheeks to give the appearance of high, strong cheekbones. Chin, pre-jowl, and cheek implants can be resized and shaped during surgery according to the individual patient.

Dr. Mittelman uses facial implants that he designed and patented himself. Though many surgeons offer facial implants, few have Dr. Mittelman’s level of expertise.
