I am looking to increase projection of recessed and improve definition of jaw. I am wondering if a chin implant might cause over accentuation of the labiomental groove/crease. I am looking to get as much projection as possible.
Answer: What would be most appropriate in my case: sliding genioplasty or chin implant? Hi, based upon the attached photo your chin is quite weak. Chin augmentation, with a chin implant, can add volume to the chin creating harmony and balance to the lower face. I have performed many chin implant surgeries over the past 30 years and these are safe, quick and highly effective. The sliding genioplasty is much more of an invasive procedure compared to placement of a chin implant through an incision under the chin (not through the mouth). Hope this helps.

Answer: Sliding genioplasty or chin implant A chin implant would do just fine.In my humble opinion, whoever is offering genioplasties as a substitute, where a simple chin implant will do, is plain wrong.I have stated my position, on this site, many times. You don't have to reinvent the wheel. I think its poor choice for a simple chin augmentation.
