Hi, after looking through the internet and at pictures, I think I have chin ptosis? My chin sticks out when I smile and I really dislike how it looks. I’m 20 years old and I would like to know my options on fixing this. Thanks in advance!

Answer: Chin Ptosis With just this one picture you are demonstrating dynamic chin ptosis, a soft tissue chin overhang that occurs when you smile but is not present when you don't....or at least in a negligible amount. Dynamic chin ptosis requires some bone and soft tissue reduction done from a small incision under your chin.

Answer: Chin reduction Usually this occurs due to multiple factors, excess bone, soft tissue and also muscle action. We need to examine the area with detailed photos and get a CT scan/xray to get a 3D evaluation and plan a procedure that address all these issues. Consider a consultation if you would like more information. Best wishes.
