Am I candidate for a sliding genioplasty or chin implant? (photos)

A genioplasty would be able to get you more projection and help to fix some of the asymmetry in your lower face. Moving your chin slightly forward and down would improve your overall facial balance, especially from the profile. An added benefit would be elongating your jawline and tightening some of the skin under your chin. You could potentially be a candidate for jawline contouring to help with the asymmetry as well. You may also consider buccal fat removal, which would reduce some of the fullness in your cheeks and take some weight off your jowls/jawline. Our practice offers in-person or virtual consultations if you would like to discuss options futher!

Dear Versatile2004,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.

Looking at your profile view your chin blacks prominence, and there's some fullness below it. You are a good candidate for sliding geneoplasty. In my practice that is my preference to provide facial balance and correct inadequate chin projection. I agree that it is preferable to implants which have risk of shifting, infection, and affecting the underlying bone.
