About Chin Surgery / Genioplasty

Chin surgery, or genioplasty, is a cosmetic and reconstructive procedure aimed at reshaping the chin to improve facial balance and aesthetics. The procedure can involve either enhancing the chin’s projection (augmentation genioplasty) or reducing the size and prominence of the chin (reduction genioplasty). A weak or recessed chin can create an imbalance in the facial profile, making the nose or forehead appear more prominent. Conversely, an overly prominent chin can dominate the face, affecting its overall harmony. Genioplasty addresses these issues by altering the underlying bone structure, giving patients a more proportionate and attractive facial appearance.

In addition to cosmetic reasons, genioplasty may also be recommended for patients with congenital deformities, facial trauma, or dental misalignment issues that affect jaw function. The surgery is often performed as a standalone procedure or in combination with other facial surgeries such as rhinoplasty or jaw surgery to achieve comprehensive facial improvement.

Procedure

At Emirates Hospitals Group, genioplasty is tailored to meet each patient’s individual needs. The procedure is typically performed under general anesthesia, ensuring comfort and safety throughout.

1. Consultation and Planning: The process begins with an in-depth consultation where the surgeon evaluates the patient’s facial structure and discusses their aesthetic goals. 3D imaging may be used to simulate the expected outcomes and determine the best approach for the surgery.
2. Surgical Technique:
   • Augmentation Genioplasty: For patients looking to enhance a recessed chin, the surgeon will either move the chin bone forward or place a biocompatible implant to add projection. In cases where the bone is repositioned, a small incision is made inside the mouth, allowing the surgeon to access the chin bone and slide it forward. Titanium plates and screws are used to secure the bone in its new position.
   • Reduction Genioplasty: For patients seeking to reduce an overly prominent chin, the surgeon will remove or reshape a portion of the chin bone to create a smaller, more balanced profile. This approach is also performed through an incision inside the mouth, leaving no visible scars.
3. Post-Surgical Care: After the procedure, patients will need to follow post-operative care instructions, including managing swelling and maintaining good oral hygiene to aid in healing. Most patients experience mild swelling and discomfort for the first few days, with recovery taking approximately two to three weeks.

Benefits

Chin surgery offers both aesthetic and functional benefits, making it a popular choice for patients looking to enhance their facial appearance:

1. Improved Facial Balance: Genioplasty helps harmonize the facial profile by correcting a weak or overly prominent chin, resulting in a more balanced and proportionate appearance.
2. Boosted Confidence: By enhancing facial symmetry, patients often experience a significant improvement in self-esteem and overall confidence.
3. Customizable Results: The procedure is highly customizable, allowing the surgeon to tailor the surgery to each patient’s unique facial structure and aesthetic goals.
4. Natural-Looking Outcomes: With the expertise of our skilled surgeons, patients can expect subtle and natural-looking results that enhance their appearance without looking artificial.
5. No Visible Scars: Since the procedure is typically performed through incisions inside the mouth, there are no visible external scars, preserving the patient’s natural appearance.
