Barry L. Eppley, MD, DMD · Answer

The tightness from a sliding genioplasty, which is almost always centered around the deep labiomental fold area, is scar contracture into the bony step off. This can be improved by one of two surgical techniques, 1) bony step off release and interpositional dermal-fat grafting, or 2) subtotal vs complete genioplasty reversal. Which one is the best choice is influenced by how you perceive the aesthetic result.
