CHIN SURGERY / MENTOPLASTY     
Chin Implant / Chin Reduction Surgery

The chin is an important facial feature, particularly so in evaluating one’s profile.

Chin surgery also knows as mentoplasty is a procedure that aims at either reshaping the chin either by enhancement with an implant or it's a reduction surgery on the bone.
It is not uncommon for a plastic surgeon to recommend chin surgery to a patient having nose surgery in order to achieve facial proportion since the size of the chin may make the perceived size of the nose bigger or smaller. In most cases chin surgery gives the face more balance.

A chin that is defined helps give balance to the face and influences how a person's profile looks. Usually, people when they look in the mirror, focus on the size and shape of their noses, their earsor fine wrinkling of the skin. Not a lot of them pay attention to their chins with the same sort of focus. But having a weak chin or a double chin is not an asset.

Surgeons who specialize in rhinoplasty (surgery of the nose), are often the first to suggest that changes in chin size or shape may enhance a profile as much as rhinoplasty. It is common for the facial plastic surgeon to recommend chin surgery in addition to nose surgery when the surgeon sees that chin augmentation is necessary to achieve facial balance and harmony. Fortunately, this is a relatively straightforward procedure that can make a major difference.

A nice balanced profile can be usually achieved by inserting an implant in the chin. Another procedure involves moving the bone forward to build up a receding chin. Also the chin reduction of a jutting or too prominent chin is possible in chin surgery. This is usually done by submental liposuction where excess fatty tissue is removed to redefine the chin or neckline of the patient. Sometimes if there's a contributing problem of birth defects in the structure of the jaw itself, chin surgery of the jaw will improve how the face looks and functions.

HOW WILL THE PROCEDURE BE PERFORMED?
The implants used to improve the chin are shaped to the required contour and are inserted through a small incision usually inside the lower lip, to create the pocket and then the implant is inserted inside the mouth, along the lower lip, directly over the jawbone or in the skin just under the chin area. In this case, the procedure leaves very little, if any, scarring.

The incision can also be located under the chin in the crease, it is very inconspicuous and is about one inch long.
