Chin Augmentation Surgery Becoming More of a Norm


Chin Augmentation is a common procedure which brings balance to the facial structure by way of correcting a weak chin due to congenital deficiency, age-related bone absorption or facial trauma. This procedure can be as simple as injecting a temporary soft tissue augmentation filler to implanting a silicone or Porex chin implant, to having a genioplasty. We will cover all the ways available to enhance the chin.


A weak chin can also make a normal nose appear large and an already prominent nose seem even larger. It may also give the appearance of a 'fleshy' neck. On the other hand, a too prominent chin may give the appearance of having too small of a nose or otherwise throwing the face off balance. The end result should be a balanced relationship within the structure of the face. Some patients prefer to have rhinoplasty in conjunction with chin augmentation in order to provide the best facial balance.  Chin augmentation can also be performed as part of an overall face lift.


While chin enhancement can be a relatively simple procedure, it still requires sound judgment, meticulous skill and a good aesthetic eye.

Cameron Diaz Shows off Her New and Improved Beautiful Face

Reports have been flooding the internet about Cameron Diaz, who was recently spotted at the Paris Fashion Shows looking quite different.  Several months ago, we noticed that her breasts were definitely larger, indicating she could have had a breast enhancement procedure, such as breast implants.  But now, it looks like the "Bad Teacher" star has made a trip back to her plastic surgeon receiving several treatments that have changed the look and feel of her face.

We asked our very own board certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Jeffrey LaGrasso, who is located in our Ft. Lauderdale location what his thoughts were.  "Firstly, Cameron's skin texture is smooth and very shiny, she could have had several different laser procedures done, such as laser skin resurfacing which can reduce facial wrinkles, scars and blemishes.  Also, we look at pictures of her from a few years back compared to today, it looks as though she has had some chemical fillers applied to her face, such as Radiesse, which upon injection, acts as a volumizing filler that immediately provides the volume and lift needed to diminish the signs of aging.  She definitely has had Botox too, her forehead is very smooth and wrinkle free".


First her breasts and now her face? Since breaking up with baseball star Alex Rodriguez last year, Cameron Diaz seems to have gone out of her way to prove she is young, carefree and single!

Cameron will be turning 40 in August of this year, apparently she is already preparing by turning back the clock a few years.

It is not the first time that Diaz has had work done on her face. In 2006, she admitted to having a nose job but claimed it was for "medical purposes," after she broke it in a surfing accident.
