What is Chin Augmentation?
Chin augmentation, also known as a Genioplasty, is a surgical procedure that improves the shape and projection of the chin by surgically inserting a chin implant to create a more well-defined jawline. The procedure addresses concerns like a recessed or weak chin, helping to improve overall facial symmetry.
In some cases, patients with an overly prominent or a misaligned chin are better suited for a “sliding genioplasty” procedure which involves the cutting and repositioning of the chin bone instead of a chin implant. This procedure is done by an Oral and Maxillofacial surgeon or Plastic surgeon who specializes in this reconstructive procedure.
