cleft chin removal surgery
You might wonder if it is possible to afford to correct a cleft. Cleft chins require surgery. Cleft chins can make it difficult to maintain your natural facial features. You might consider having surgery to correct a cleft chin. Cleft chin removal can be expensive, depending on the type of work required.
Dermal fillers
There are two types of dermalfillers that can be used to correct cleft-chin. Both can be used to reduce the dimples, but each has a slightly different effect. Dermal fillers, also called dermal grafts, are temporary, and are injected into the soft tissues underneath the skin. The patient's goals and specific needs will determine the depth of the injection. The effects of dermal injections last approximately six to twelve months. Fat grafting, another permanent filler, is also available. The surgeon removes some fat from your stomach, and then transplants it to the chin to increase its volume.
Fat grafting
Cleft chins could be repaired by surgery or removed completely. Your surgeon will help you choose the best option. It's possible either to add a full chin augmentation, or to remove a small portion with a fat-graft. This option is more costly than others but is far less invasive.
Nonsurgical options
While there are some nonsurgical options, the results from chin surgery may not be permanent. The process of cleft chin removal involves the removal of bone and soft tissue in the affected area. The surgeon will determine the depth of the filler and the results may last from six months to one year. Cleft chin can be corrected surgically, but other options are available such as removing the chin muscles and changing the bone. Surgery is a highly skilled procedure. The surgeon's goal in surgery is to give the patient a natural look.
Cost
There are several surgical procedures that can correct a cleft in the chin. You can choose from dermal fillers or fat grafting to repair your cleft chin. If there are any side effects, dermal fillers can usually be reversed. The duration of the procedure depends on the surgeon and the filler used. Fat grafting is a permanent procedure that involves removing small amounts of stomach fat to create a chin.
