My main issues: Non existent jaw line, instead I have 45 degree line sloping downwards Double chin from the front Chin seems to be somewhat retruded. Resting face expression seems to be angry I am very lean, I have 29" waist at 6'3", so it's not a facial fat issue. Good looking men tend to have straight prominent jawlines and their chins are directly bellow bottom lip, sometimes even further that that. This seems consistent. Would chin implant/sliding genioplasty solve my problems?

Answer: Sliding genioplasty versus a chin implant A sliding genioplasty is performed by oral surgeon under general anesthesia as an inpatient procedure a hospital, with an overnight stay. A chin implant is performed for cosmetic purposes under local anesthesia as an outpatient procedure. Chin implants are manufactured in a variety of sizes and shapes, are composed of Silastic, and can be custom carved when necessary to fit the patient's specific anatomical requirements. The fatty deposits( submental and sub-platysmal) in the neck will also require some degree of removal, which may include a platysma plasty to give a sharp angulated jawline.

Answer: Sliding Genioplasty While both a chin implant and a sliding genioplasty will provide significant improvement I would leans towards the sliding genioplasty because it has greater neck benefits and can vertically lengthen your chin as well. Also some neck treatment will be needed as well such a liposuction or a submentoplasty to try and get the neck angle closer to 90 degrees. ideally a opening sliding genioplasty with a submentoplasty is needed to get you closer to your ideal chin/neck angle change. A chin implant and neck liposuction will help but will not provide the same degree of improvement.
