For rhinoplasty operation to look successful, the shape and the position of the chin become important. If the chin is way behind a vertical plane dropped from the vermilion of the lower lip, it disturbs the proportions in the face. The nose may look bigger and longer than normal. Augmentation mentoplasty is an easy technique where a silicone implant is inserted in a pocket created inside the chin. It is an easy technique and the results are very satisfactory. If rhinoplasty and augmentation mentoplasty are performed at the same time as generally recommended, nose and the face proportions become more perfect.
