Hey everyone! I’m Amanda, and I’m just starting to look into getting a chin implant. I’ve always felt like my chin is a bit recessed, and I’m curious about the costs involved. I know prices can vary a lot depending on location and the surgeon, but could anyone share their experiences or ballpark figures? Also, any tips on what to consider when choosing a surgeon would be super helpful. Thanks so much! 
Hi Amanda! Welcome to the group. I remember being in your shoes not too long ago. Cost definitely varies depending on the area, but for reference, I paid $5,000 for my procedure with Dr. Alan Yan in Albany, New York. In my research, most typical quotes fell between $4,200 and $7,400, though some specialists can be much higher.
When choosing a surgeon, my biggest tip is to ensure they are board-certified and that you feel comfortable with their approach. I used NavMDs to compare providers and noticed Dr. Aaron J. Mayberry in Albuquerque has great reviews and even offers free consultations. It’s a huge help to talk to a few experts to get a feel for the process before deciding. Good luck!
I paid around 6500 for mine with a pretty experienced surgeon, but yeah it really depends on where you are. I’d just check their before and afters super carefully so you know what kind of results to expect. And don’t forget to ask about what kind of implant they use, since that can make a big difference.
From what I’ve heard, chin implants don’t usually run less than 4 grand where I live, but honestly I was more focused on my tummy tuck costs and didn’t follow chin prices too closely. If you’re looking at contouring overall, sometimes bundling procedures can save a bit.
I looked into chin implants a while back but ended up going with a filler solution instead to avoid surgery downtime. For what I found, the implant surgery itself was quoted around $6,000 to $7,000 here in Texas, and that didn’t include anesthesia or facility fees, those added another $1,500 or so. If you’re on a budget but want a noticeable change, fillers can give you a sense of the shape before committing to something permanent.
