Abstract
The article presents a comparative analysis of existing aesthetic methods for augmenting the chin area. An assessment of the risks of postoperative complications was conducted. It was found that chin augmentation using a subplatysmal autologous fat graft is a minimally invasive, safe, predictable, and long-lasting method that works well in combination with other facial rejuvenation procedures.
