An Overview of Chin Genioplasty
This technique has two popular methods, these are as follows:
-
Genioplasty with Sliding
A sliding genioplasty involves moving the chin bone to compensate for a chin shortage by cutting it away from the rest of the jaw with a saw. Another name for this is an osseous genioplasty.
People with significant retrogenia or whose chin is too far back in comparison to the rest of their face are advised to have this form of genioplasty. Additionally, it can aid in correcting chins that are excessively long and thrust forward.
-
Chin Implant
The appearance of the chin can be advanced, enlarged, or reshaped with chin implants. You can use an injection or surgery to do this.
A chin implant attached to the bone is placed during a surgical chin augmentation procedure. The most popular implants are alloplastic (made of synthetic materials).
Ideal Candidate for Chin Genioplasty
However, anyone willing to improve the appearance of the chin can consider this treatment. But the candidate must fulfil specific eligibility criteria to go through the procedure. These are as follows:
-
Must have successfully passed in laboratory testing or a medical examination
-
Who are healthy and non-smokers
-
People who have passed orthodontic evaluation
-
People with good skin and stable bone structure are better candidates for surgery
-
If the candidate is taking any anti-inflammatory medications, or herbal supplements, it needs to be stopped (as advised by the surgeon)
-
People whose chin is out of proportion compared to rest of facial features
-
Effective option for people with a small or receding chin
-
People who are not suffering from any active diseases or pre-existing medical conditions
-
Chin surgery can be done under general anaesthesia, intravenous sedation, or local anaesthetic and is usually carried out at a plastic surgery clinic. So make sure someone is available to drive for you. The person can stay with you for the first night afterwards if your cheek surgery involves general anaesthesia or intravenous sedation.
How much is the cost of a genioplasty?
The cost of genioplasty is hard to estimate in general. Every surgery has a different price tag, just like you. A few factors that may affect the pricing are:
-
How far the jaw is moving, where you reside, and which surgeon you work with
-
The size of the implant and the materials used to make it.
