I declined double jaw surgery but want to fix my profile - what options would I have? (Photo)

There are two options for aesthetic improvement of your lower facial profile. A silicone chin implant can be placed on the bone or you can have the chin bone moved with a sliding genioplasty. Both options are equally effective in improving your facial balance. Some patients have a stronger feeling about one option or the other but both will give you the same result. The surgeries are performed in the office with sedation anesthesia. Neither will effect your bite or teeth.

Based on this very limited information you seem to be a candidate for chin augmentation with implant or by means of sliding genioplasty. This surgery should be done with rhinoplasty.

A full set of facial and neck photographs are required to make a determination about how best to proceed. The x-ray presented is not helpful. Placement of a chin implant can augment your recessive chin forward, which can be done simultaneously with a septoplasty and a rhinoplasty procedure. Placement of a chin implant can accomplish, bringing your chin forward, and a rhinoplasty procedure can decrease the overall projection of your nose as well. Digital computer imaging would be helpful to understand what can be accomplished with both procedures upon your facial features.
