Non-Surgical Chin Augmentation Using Radiesse Dermal Filler

One of the key elements of an attractive face is a strong and proportionate chin. An ample chin can help to create symmetry, add definition and bring balance to facial features. Chin augmentation can be performed using chin implant plastic surgery, but not every patient may be prepared for a surgical procedure. Patients who want to avoid surgery may consider non-surgical chin augmentation using Radiesse dermal filler.
People with a moderately recessive or undermined chin may be good candidates for non-surgical chin augmentation. Sometimes a patient may choose this procedure as a prelude to chin augmentation surgery. MBody, led by board certified plastic surgeons, provides non-surgical chin augmentation to patients in Northern Virginia, Washington DC, Vienna, McLean, Loudoun, Ashburn, Tysons Corner, Reston, Arlington, Chevy Chase, Richmond, Fredricksburg, and surrounding communities.

Procedure

To perform chin augmentation without involving plastic surgery, the treatment provider may use Radiesse facial filler injections. This procedure can be performed in-office in a single treatment session lasting less than 20 minutes, and the patient can simply return to their normal routine after the treatment. The provider will apply a local anesthetic injection or a topical numbing cream to the targeted area of injections around the chin.
Radiesse filler gel will be administered through a very small needle or a micro cannula in the marked areas of the chin. The gel will reach the deeper skin layers to add volume and projection to the chin. Radiesse filler gel is composed of calcium microspheres, which do not disintegrate easily. Therefore, the patient can enjoy longer lasting results with Radiesse than with many other filler injections.

Recovery and Results

Chin augmentation effects with a single Radiesse injectable treatment can last for up to one year. Some patients may have to receive touch up treatments at six-month intervals. The patient will experience minimal discomfort during the procedure, and post-treatment bruising will be low. Swelling may last for two to three days after the procedure.
Radiesse injectable chin enhancement procedure will avoid the typical risks and complications that are associated with a chin implant surgery. Common problems such as infection and scar tissue are avoided with Radiesse chin augmentation procedure. This FDA approved treatment is highly safe as long as it is performed by a qualified and experienced dermal filler provider.

Customized Treatment

Each patient has a unique facial anatomy and chin appearance. At the same time, the aesthetic perspectives and requirements will also vary from one patient to another. Therefore, an experienced Radiesse chin augmentation treatment provider will create a customized injection plan after taking various factors into account.
In some cases, Radiesse chin augmentation may be combined with other injectable fillers such as Juvederm Voluma. Chin and nose are often addressed together to maintain facial balance. Botox or filler injections may be used for the nose to create the right balance between the nose and the chin.
Experienced plastic surgeons at MBody receive patients from Northern Virginia, Washington DC, Vienna, McLean, Loudoun, Ashburn, Tysons Corner, Reston, Arlington, Chevy Chase, Richmond, Fredricksburg, and nearby areas for Radiesse non-surgical chin augmentation.

In-Office “Little Lipo” Liposuction

Liposuction ranks among the top five plastic surgery procedures performed in the US today. While thousands of women and men benefit from this surgery every year, there are many more who want to avoid a significantly invasive procedure that involves the typical risks and complications of a surgery.

The practice provides in-office liposuction to patients in Northern Virginia, Washington DC, Vienna, McLean, Loudoun, Ashburn, Tysons Corner, Reston, Arlington, Chevy Chase, Richmond, Fredricksburg, and surrounding communities.

Fat Reduction with In-Office Little Lipo

The experienced team of plastic surgery professionals at MBody will employ cutting edge techniques involving laser or other advanced options to create less invasive, customized outcomes. The surgeon will expertly sculpt the contours in areas with unwanted fat tissue to produce a smoother, youthful looking figure.

In-office liposuction can be employed to sculpt the neck, chin, arms, breasts, back, flanks or love handles, abdomen, thighs, hips, pubis, knees, ankles and other areas where diet and exercise resistant fat is present. The procedure is safe, minimally invasive and involves only local anesthesia. The fat cells eliminated with this procedure are gone for good, and the patient has to go through minimal to no downtime and discomfort.

Advantages

Some of the key advantages of in-office liposuction include:

The procedure can be performed at the office of the plastic surgeon, and surgical center costs can be avoided.
General anesthesia is not required, and the surgeon will usually apply local anesthesia with a light sedation. The patient stays awake through the procedure and may even talk to the surgeon during the surgery.
Downtime involves is minimal, and the patient can quickly resume their normal routine. Most patients will return to their workplace in about one to three days.
The overall costs of in-office liposuction are significantly lower than traditional liposuction because the fee of the anesthesiologist and surgical room costs are avoided.
Bruising and swelling in this procedure is significantly reduced as compared to traditional liposuction, and full results will be visible much faster as the swelling resolves.
In-office liposuction is much safer, with a substantially lower risk of side effects and complications.

How does it Work?

In-office liposuction may involve an advanced laser body sculpting technique. Controlled laser wavelengths will focus on the targeted area to painlessly liquefy the fat. A medical suction device will then be applied to gently and permanently remove the liquefied fat from the affected area, leaving slimmer and more youthful contours.

The use of laser or other techniques to melt the stubborn fat cells allows the plastic surgeon to remove the fat in a less invasive manner, and without disrupting the surrounding healthy tissue. MBody receives patients from Northern Virginia, Washington DC, Vienna, McLean, Loudoun, Ashburn, Tysons Corner, Reston, Arlington, Chevy Chase, Richmond, Fredricksburg, and nearby areas for in-office liposuction and various other procedures.
