Which chin procedure is suitable for me? (Photo)

Question

Hi All, So I am interested in having a genioplasty, chin implant or similar, so was wondering, based on the picture provided, what procedure would best harmonise my lower third and give me a more prominent chin and defined jaw? FYI I have had a rhinoplasty since this photo but have a beard now so need to use a photo of me clean shaven. Many thanks!

Thank you for your question. Unfortunately, your image does not provide enough information to say which procedure might fit you best. I can tell you that I offer custom mandibular implants in my practice that allows me to sculpt the entire jawline to the precise needs and proportions of each patient. I encourage you to schedule a consultation with an experienced, board-certified facial plastic surgeon who can perform a comprehensive assessment and create a customized treatment plan based on your unique needs and goals.

With your very short chin a sliding genioplasty would be preferable over a chin implant. For a more defined jawline this requires a jaw augmentation behind the sliding genioplasty using either standard or custom jawline implants.
