Evans and Augusta, GA - Rhinoplasty - Nose Job

• Rhinoplasty
• Chin Implant

Surgeon: Achih H. Chen, MD, FACS

This is a 17 year old high school student who was bothered by the size of her nose and by the hump on her bridge. She was often teased by fellow classmates. As teenagers can be very harsh with their criticisms of each other, she and her family felt that addressing her concerns would help her self confidence. During her consultation, Augusta and Evan, GA Facial Plastic Surgeon, Dr. Achih H. Chen, noted that beyond the hump in her nose, some of the prominence of her nose, especially from the side or profile view, is due to a smaller or underprojected chin. A smaller chin will often make the nose appear more projected (the amounts the nose projects foreward from the face). A more projected or prominent chin will balance the projection of the nose. As a result, she underwent Chin Implant placement as well as Rhinoplasty surgery (nose job) at the Georgia Center for Facial Plastic Surgery serving metro Augusta, GA and Aiken, SC.
