    United States Chin Surgery Market Insights, Outlook
    29 Mar, 2022

    Chin surgery is a procedure that alters a person's profile by bringing the chin out. The United States chin surgery market constitutes the most common surgical procedure with 43,900 chin surgical procedures. According to the American Society, more men and women aged 40-55 and older will have the procedure than any other age group in 2020. Chin surgery, such as a chin tuck, neck lift, or chin liposuction, can make a face appear younger or thinner. The procedures can remove excess fat, shape the area, and smooth the skin. Chin liposuction, chin tuck, neck lift, and Kybella® injections are performed by a plastic surgeon in the United States. As per the American Society of Plastic Surgeons data from 2020, the average cost of chin augmentation was US$ 3,137.


    The Immediate After effects of Chin Surgery and the Expected Outcomes:

    Some swelling and bruising are to be expected following the operation. Most of the swelling usually goes away within a week, and the bruising goes away within a couple of weeks. There may be some mild discomfort after surgery, but this is usually easily controlled with medication. Significant pain is unusual. Furthermore, significant improvement is seen immediately after surgery. As the swelling reduces in the weeks following surgery, the chin appears more natural and attractive. However, the degree of improvement achieved is determined by the individual's physical characteristics and the extent of surgery.


    The Costs and Risks of Chin Surgery:

    Expenditures for facial plastic surgery and operative facilities vary greatly and are determined by the extent and complexity of the surgery and the individual surgeon. Furthermore, because this type of surgery is typically not covered by insurance, cosmetic surgery fees are generally expected in advance of the surgery. Again, there are inherent risks in any surgical procedure, which should be thoroughly discussed with the facial plastic surgeon. Yet, every year, hundreds of successful chin augmentations are performed in the United States.
