Would a genioplasty with liposuction give me my desired results? (photos)

Question

I’m 19 and am about to get my braces off. I have no overbite anymore, but still a recessed chin and zero jawline. I just wanted some opinions on whether or not these results are possible from a sliding genioplasty and chin/neck lipo. Thank you!

Michael P. Morrissette, DDS, FACS · Answer

The results that you desire can be achieved with a sliding genioplasty or chin implant. The addition of jawline and neck liposuction would give you a well defined and contoured neck and chin.

Ideally you would have had an advancement of the lower jaw rather than tilting of the teeth to fix your bite (all too common unfortunately). A genioplasty will improve the profile for sure but not as simulated, which illustrates a jaw advancement
