Chin reduction and how much would it cost? (photo)

In order achieve a good aesthetic result, one should consider a Reduction Genioplasty, this can be done through an inter-oral incision where the bone prominent of the jaw will be reduced.

The cost is variable according to the surgeon and the area. Keep in mind this operation usually requires general anaestheia but can be done as a day-case.

Cost factors vary significantly for a number of good reasons: Prices vary greatly because the surgery itself encompasses a wide range of techniques that can be performed to different extents. My recommendation is to first find the most qualified surgeons where you want the surgery performed that are board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery you trust, then compare prices between them. See the below link on suggestions on how to find the most qualified plastic surgeon for your procedure. General Factors that influence the price of plastic surgery include:


1. Location - Will it be performed in a hospital with an overnight stay, an independent out- patient facility or a doctor’s office? Geographical location also has a significant influence. RealSelf has average charges for most areas of the USA.


2. Type of Anesthesia - local, IV sedation or General Anesthesia? Will a board certified anesthesiologist, nurse anesthetist, or an RN be used?
    
      3. Experience and training of your surgeon. The best and longest trained is most often a plastic surgeon board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery
   
      4. Length and Complexity of Surgery - how difficult will your surgery be and how long it will take, etc. Will other complementary procedures also be also performed during the same surgery?

Your chin reduction needs both bone and soft tissue reduction and is best done from a submental approach. Total costs for this type of surgery is in the $6,000 range.
