What Is Genioplasty?

Genioplasty or chin reshaping surgery is a cosmetic surgery to correct the shape, height, contour, projection, symmetry, and alignment of a chin to enhance the appearance of the face by harmonizing the jaws, nose, chin, and smile. Chin repositioning surgery brings an aesthetically pleasing chin contour and establishes a proportionated facial height that helps define the jawline and improve facial symmetry and overall facial appearance.

What are the Top 4 Advantages of Genioplasty| Chin Reshaping Surgery?

1.    The shape of the chin can be resized and repositioned in any direction.

Genioplasty surgery corrects deformities or ill-positioned chin either by implanting a chin implant or bone work, depending on the goal of the surgery. In the chin implant procedure, silicone or porous polyethylene implants are placed to provide better balance to the facial features. Bone work is an outpatient procedure that takes approximately 2-3 hours to be performed. However, chin reshaping surgery allows a plastic surgeon to change the shape and structure of the chin according to one's facial profile to meet aesthetically pleasing results. Bone work is good for those patients who want a more prominent chin.

2.    Chin reshaping/ Genioplasty, improves jawline definition.

Chin reshaping can be performed alone or in combination with other jaw-related surgeries to produce the desired outcomes by correcting the patient's congenital defects. Besides that, one must note that Genioplasty is a commonly performed cosmetic surgery in Bangalore and is most frequently combined with neck liposuction, rhinoplasty/ nose job, a neck lift, or laser skin resurfacing to provide optimal results. In addition, congenital chin deformities, such as condylar hyperplasia, hemimandibular elongation, hemifacial microsomia, occlusal and skeletal deformities can produce facial disharmony that requires genioplasty surgery to establish an aesthetic pleasing lower facial profile.

3.    Genioplasty can make the chin bigger, smaller, protruding, or more symmetrical.

The most significant aspect of a chin repositioning surgery is the flexibility of the procedure to bring the desired results based on one's surgical goal and expectations. However, if someone is struggling with a receded chin, asymmetrical chin, overly projected, less protruded, or more symmetrical, in every case, genioplasty/ chin reshaping surgery is a rescue. Genioplasty is ideal for people facing chin contour, structure, and proportion issues.

The indications of genioplasty/ chin reshaping surgery involve the following case:

b)   Macrogenia (an enlarged chin)

c)    Microgenia (small or deformed chin)
