Chin Surgery (Genioplasty)


Genioplasty / Mentoplasty is a type of cosmetic surgery that is used for improvement in the appearance of a person's chin. This can be performed in two ways. First type is to correct chin height or chin rounding by osteotomy. The other type is for chin enhancement by using Chin implants.

Who needs the Chin Surgery

When the chin is out of proportion with the rest of the face it may require correction for adding attractiveness to the face . A jaw that is too large or too small may be associated with dental occlusion problems. Even though the dental occlusion is normal, the chin may be out of balance with the rest of the face. The chin can be either large and protruding or too small. In both cases it can be corrected by cosmetic surgery.
