Facial Services for Patients in Fort Lee, NJ
Chin implants
A chin implant is a surgical procedure that enhances the shape, size, and projection of the chin. A specially designed implant is positioned along the front of the lower jaw to build structure where it is lacking. The procedure typically takes 45 minutes to 1.5 hours and provides a permanent improvement to your profile without ongoing maintenance.
Awake Chin Lipo
Awake Chin Lipo targets fullness beneath the chin while you remain awake and comfortable. It can sharpen the angle between the chin and neck. Some patients find it pairs well with a chin implant when they want both added projection and a slimmer neckline.
Jawline Filler
Jawline Filler adds definition along the jaw without surgery. Because results are temporary, it can also give you a preview of how a stronger lower face might look before you commit to a permanent implant. This makes it a helpful option for patients still exploring their goals.
Cheek Filler
Cheek Filler restores volume to the midface and can lift and contour the cheekbones. Balancing the cheeks with the chin helps the whole face look proportionate. It is a nonsurgical way to refine facial harmony alongside other treatments.
PDO Thread Lift
A PDO Thread Lift uses dissolvable threads to gently lift and reposition soft tissue in the face. It can help address mild laxity around the jaw and lower face. Many patients choose it to complement the structural support a chin implant provides.
Facial Skin Tightening
Facial Skin Tightening improves firmness and smoothness in areas where skin has begun to loosen. Tighter skin along the jaw and neck can make a defined chin stand out even more. Treatment is tailored to the areas that matter most to you.
Sculptra
Sculptra, offered through our med spa, stimulates the body’s own collagen production over time. It gradually restores lost volume for a refreshed appearance. Patients often use it to support overall facial balance in addition to surgical enhancements.

Why Choose Our Compassionate Care?
Customized Implant Design
Every chin implant is planned around your agreed upon corrective goals rather than a one size fits all approach. You can view sample implants during planning, so you understand exactly what is proposed. This transparency helps you feel informed and comfortable with every decision.
Decades of Surgical Experience
Long experience gives Dr. Mordkovich a deep understanding of facial anatomy and how small structural changes affect the whole face. That background helps him plan results that look harmonious from the front, the side, and every angle in between. Patients feel confident knowing their care is guided by careful judgment.
Choice of Anesthesia
Your comfort matters, so you can discuss whether general anesthesia or local anesthesia with IV sedation suits you best. Dr. Mordkovich will review both approaches and help you decide. This flexibility allows your surgical plan to reflect your personal preferences.
Thoughtful Incision Placement
Dr. Mordkovich prefers a small incision beneath the chin, where it is well concealed. The incision is closed carefully and supported with a compression bandage to encourage clean healing. A follow up visit about 7 to 10 days later allows suture removal and a review of your progress.

FAQ About Chin Implants in Fort Lee, NJ
How is the right chin implant size chosen for me?
Dr. Mordkovich evaluates your facial proportions and may use imaging tools or physical sizers to select an implant. He considers how your chin relates to your nose, lips, and jawline. The goal is a size and shape that looks natural and balanced with your other features.
Is a chin implant permanent compared with jawline filler?
Yes, a chin implant is designed to be a lasting enhancement. Jawline filler is gradually absorbed by the body, so its results fade and require repeat treatments to maintain. Patients who want a single, durable change in chin projection often prefer an implant.
How soon can I return to normal activities after surgery?
Most patients return to regular activities within about one week. Strenuous exercise should be limited for a couple of extra weeks so you can heal properly. Your profile change is visible right away, with final results appearing as swelling resolves and healing completes.
Can chin implants be combined with other treatments?
Yes, chin implants can be performed on their own or as part of a broader facial plan. Combining treatments can address projection, neck contour, and skin quality together. Dr. Mordkovich can help you decide which combination suits your goals and whether treatments should be staged or done together.
