Chin and Cheek Enhancement

The center of the face from the chin to the cheek bone has a major impact on the overall appearance of the face. It is the central focus area that creates balance and harmony with the eyes, nose and mouth. For many, a small chin or sagging cheeks can detract from their appearance, whether it is due to age or just their natural facial features. With adjustments to the cheeks or chin through plastic surgery enhancement, many people gain the facial harmony that can boost their self-confidence.

Few facial plastic surgeons in New York bring the depth of skeletal-contouring experience that Dr. Maurice Khosh offers to chin and cheek enhancement. Dual board-certified by the American Board of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery and the American Board of Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, Dr. Khosh is a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons (FACS) and a Clinical Assistant Professor at Columbia University. He is the author of a published reference on pectoral implant technique (eMedicine, 2009) and a chapter on tissue expansion — work that reflects his depth in implant-based facial and body contouring beyond what most facial cosmetic practices offer. Three decades of surgical experience, leadership as a past president of the New York Facial Plastic Surgery Society, and hospital privileges at NewYork-Presbyterian, Mount Sinai West, and the Manhattan Eye, Ear, and Throat Infirmary (MEETH) inform every consultation. Whether the recommendation involves a chin implant, cheek implant, fat transfer, or non-surgical contouring with injectable fillers, the goal is always the same: a refined, balanced result that complements the patient’s natural facial proportions rather than imposing a generic ideal.

Implant Options for Chin and Cheeks

Implants or fillers can be used to create facial balance and enhance your appearance by adding fullness to the cheeks or structure to the chin. Dr. Khosh offers a few different procedures to add volume to these areas, including:

  • Buccal Fat Removal: Reduces the fat pads that fill out the cheeks in childhood but persist into adulthood, refining the midface into a more sculpted, angular contour
  • Chin Implant: Uses a precisely sized prosthesis to enhance the projection, definition, and proportion of the chin and lower jawline
  • Cheek Implant: Restores midface volume lost with age by adding structural definition to the cheek bones for a more youthful, lifted appearance
  • Facial Fillers: Offers a non-surgical alternative to add volume to the cheek area, soften under-eye hollows, and smooth the surrounding contour

Meredith G.
Saw Dr. Khosh for a fractured nose. He reset my nose beautifully (and with little discomfort to me) and then discussed some of my sinus issues with me upon my follow up visit. Never felt like he was rushing me out and felt very confident in his abilities. I would highly recommend to anyone needing plastic or reconstructive options!
Jackie C.
Great front office, really good experience after what was a terrible accident. I was made to feel comfortable. Dr. Khosh is very good at what he does. I'm still healing but I'm confident of the results

After visiting and being evaluated by several doctors, I kept going back to Dr. Khosh. His tranquil spirit and professionalism were captivating. Thank you for a job well done and keeping me calm throughout the entire process. A special thanks to your staff Susan and Christine for all of their support as well. Hi highly recommend Dr. Khosh.

Upon hearing of the overwhelmingly positive experience a friend of mine had in choosing Dr. Khosh as her surgeon, I decided to make an appointment for my own septoplasty/rhinoplasty/turbinate reduction. Although I was slightly skeptical as the praise I had heard seemed a bit hyperbolic, all uncertainty dissipated after meeting the Doctor and his staff. My pre- and post-operative experience was excellent in terms of concerns adequately addressed prior to the surgery and mitigation of any bruising in the convalescent period. Despite my apparent predisposition to rather slower healing, a year after the surgery, my nose looks really pretty and my breathing entirely unobstructed! I highly recommend Dr. Khosh!
Courtney G.
AMAZING!!!!!! I had Dr Khosh perform lipo on my chin/neck and my result is unbelievable! Better than I could have expected! I met with a couple of surgeons and the second I met with Dr Khosh I knew he was the one I was going with. He was compassionate and explained every detail of what would take place during the surgery and what to expect during recovery. I even emailed a few times during recovery with various questions and he got right back to me asap which was really comforting! I honestly fully recommend Dr Khosh, he did an amazing job and is an amazing person.

i can finally breathe!! Dr. Khosh made the entire experience a breeze, it was truly a pleasure to be under his care. I am forever thankful and highly recommend him. Not only does his work speak for himself, but he has excellent bedside manner. His kindness and patience is above and beyond. He takes the time to answer to every question you have to help you understand the process while at the same time making you feel so comfortable. From the first consultation i knew i was in good hands. I am so pleased with the result and forever thankful.
