Would a genio help for my recession and help to pull some my hyoid skin tighter? (Photo)

Question

I would not lile to get jaw surgery and I was curious if a genio would be enough to fix my side profile

Zoran Potparic, MD · Answer

It is very difficult to decide whether chin augmentation by means of implant or genioplasty, would make a change you want. Only on the basis of in person evaluation, discussion about your goals and 3D simulation, appropriate plan of treatment can be created. Good luck.

Jeffrey H. Spiegel, MD · Answer

There are a number of things that can be done to adjust the profile, including the jaw/chin area.  The key is to be specific about what you are looking for.  Do you want a larger chin? Higher chin?  More forward chin? Smaller chin?  All of these are possible, and perhaps with less work than you think.
