In some patients seeking rhinoplasty, a deficient or un­derdeveloped chin contributes to the undesirable nasal appearance. Specifically, a smaller chin can make a nose appear bigger (Fig. 7). Some patients already recognize this, while some patients are surprised to learn of this relationship between the nose and the chin. Rather than making the nose too small, in some situations the rhinoplasty surgeon may talk to the patient about mak­ing their nose just a bit smaller and at the same time augmenting their chin to achieve facial balance.
