Would a chin implant or sliding genioplasty be best for me? (photos)

I believe if you want the full improvement then you should get jaw and chin surgery. This is done in hospital after doing some pre-surgical orthodontics. If you do not wish to go through this route then you could get away with a small implant. In general I prefer sliding genioplasty because it is more natural looking. We can advance your chin to get a proper shape to the labiomental fold. Currently your chin has minimum curvuture. S.G. is a procedure done in the office setting under general anesthesia. It is safe, take 1 hour to do and you go home after the procedure. It has minimum pain. Recovery is about 10 days.

A genioplasty is performed by an oral surgeon under general anesthesia in a hospital setting with an overnight stay in the hospital, and is much more invasive. It's usually performed when the teeth are significantly out of alignment. Placement of a chin implant is performed under local anesthesia as an outpatient procedure which takes approximately 30 minutes. In our practice, we use Implantech brand of solid silicone chin implants with an excellent success rate.
