Is Sliding Genioplasty enough for a double chin?

I believe my double chin is caused by my small/weak chin, but I’ve noticed that a lot patients get genioplasty in conjunction with liposuction. Is sliding genioplasty alone usually good enough to fix a double chin?

You have a somewhat deep mentolabial fold and moving the chin down 5 mm will diminish the fold. If he is moving it forward 5 mm then the effects on the mentolabial fold will provide a good balance. You may need an advancement of 6-7 mm.
