Genioplasty, commonly known as chin surgery, is a surgical procedure designed to enhance facial balance and harmony by reshaping or repositioning the chin. At Bellissima Medical Center, genioplasty procedures are performed under expert surgical care, following the highest medical and safety standards to achieve natural, proportionate, and long-lasting results.
What Is Genioplasty (Chin Surgery)?
Genioplasty is a facial surgical procedure that modifies the shape, size, or position of the chin to improve facial proportions. It may involve advancing, reducing, or reshaping the chin bone, or in some cases, the placement of a chin implant. The approach is selected based on individual anatomy and aesthetic goals.
Concerns Addressed
Genioplasty is commonly used to address a weak or recessed chin, overly prominent chin, facial asymmetry, and imbalance between the chin, nose, and jawline. By improving chin projection and contour, the procedure enhances overall facial profile and definition.
How Genioplasty (Chin Surgery) Works
During the procedure, the surgeon reshapes or repositions the chin bone through precise surgical techniques. In sliding genioplasty, the chin bone is moved forward, backward, or reshaped, while implants may be used in select cases. Incisions are typically placed inside the mouth or discreetly under the chin to minimize visible scarring.
Who Is a Suitable Candidate?
Genioplasty may be suitable for individuals seeking improved facial balance and chin definition. A comprehensive surgical consultation is required to assess facial structure, dental alignment, bite function, medical history, and aesthetic goals.
