Would genioplasty be a good option to improve my recessed chin? (photos)

It is very likely that you will achieve significant improvement with chin augmentation. Whether chin implant or genioplasty, I do not think it makes difference. In person consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon, expert in facial implants, is recommended. Good luck.

You would absolutely benefit from a genioplasty. This would make a huge difference in your profile and the balance of your face. It also adds definition to your jawline. They can technically be done under local anesthesia, but it is easier with sedation. It allows us to work faster, which also means a better outcome for you. At our practice, we put people into a "twilight sleep" where they are very comfortable but no intubation is necessary. This allows us to see the chin movements in real time, so we always know what the outcome will be.

Yes, a genioplasty would improve the profile, change the lower lip posture, and extend the distance under the chin from the neck/throat to the chin. It also may be that the orthodontist 'tilted' your lower front teeth forward which is forcing the lower lip to look like it does. This occurs when you have an original 'overbite' and the orthodontist tries to 'fix' it by tilting teeth and 'avoiding' jaw advancement surgery
