Hello! i have always been conscious of my receded chin. I wore braces for 8 months because of overbite. Now my teeth look amazing, however, i still don't like my side profile at all. my siblings and fr tell me there is nothing wrong with it. I do get compliments on my look but still insecure about my chin. What procedure do you recommend? Is there any permanent solution for it? I heard chin implants are good but has a lot of side effects. thanks!

Answer: Chin implant and lip lift I recommend a chin implant. This will make the chin project more, is done intra-orally under general anesthesia, takes about 1 hour to perform and costs $4,000. You would also benefit from a lip lift. A lip lift does 4 things: shortens the distance between your nose and upper lip, increases the mucosa of the upper lip, increases the incisor show and pulls up the corners. This can be done at the same time and the cost is $3,000.

Answer: Many ways to treat "weak" chin Dearr Glorius, It does appear you have a receded chin and as you can tell there are multiple ways to treat it. Non surgeons will always recommend a non surgical approach which is fine for minor recession. It does work but I prefer a more permanent solution. For you degree of recession I would recommend small to medium size chin implant. For mor dramatic recession certainly a sliding genioplasty is the way to go especially if there is need more more advanced facial bony procedures. Se several doctors and I am sure you will come to the right decision for you, Goog Luck, Dr. Schuster in Boca Raton Florida
