Do I need a chin implant or sliding genioplasty? (photo)

April 4, 2019
Asked By:zowie20 in Philadelphia, PA

1. Can you tell if a chin implant would be enough to improve my profile or might I need a sliding genioplasty? I'd prefer to avoid the sliding genioplasty if possible. I don't know if I should go to a surgeon who does implants or sliding genioplasties. 2. What certifications should a sliding genioplasty surgeon have? I see some are certified in Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery but that is not listed by the American Board of Medical Specialties.
