I have a recessed chin and think I want a sliding genioplasty but have a couple questions; 1. My bite is normal but I do have a slight overbite (class 1) and a 2mm overjet. Would it look odd if I did not correct this first? 2. I have not gotten an xray yet so Im not sure, but I plan on getting a 10+ mm advancement. How bad would recovery be for this? How long would it take for most swelling and bruising to go away? 3. The main reason I dont want a chin implant is because I care about my front profile as well as my side profile and generally before/afters I have seen look better with sliding genioplasties. Is there an actual aesthetic difference between these two surgeries? Or am I just seeing bad examples?
I don't have the eye to tell what exactly is making my side profile unappealing, I might just be unattractive period but it bothers me especially from the side is it the large forehead? the nose?(had 2 rhinoplasties) is it the chin? the angle/curve of the jaw? I don't know, please tell me with no filter, if its my bone structure that is simply unattractive and can't be fixed with surgery I would appreciate if it was bluntly pointed out.
I have a witches chin. I was thinking of simply putting filler in the mental crease but theres just so much soft tissue I dont think that would solve my issue. When I press on the bone it doesnt protrude excessively its mainly that soft tissue. Is a procedure like that doable?
Im a 20 year old female who has always been self conscious about my chin and jaw. Ive been wanting to do something about it but I was unsure on what type of specialist to see and the type of procedures I might need. I was wondering if a genioplasty would work or if I need something else.
Hi, for reference I am a 26 y/o male and have a short, round face. I want a vertical genioplasty advancement of 810mm to balance my face aesthetics better. I hired someone to edit pictures of what my face might look like after a vertical genioplasty. Can these edits translate to realistic, surgical results? What do you think the approximate size (mm) of the vertical advancement is in these edits?
Looking into procedures to reduce/soften my chin shape. In mid 40's and not sure if late to do. Somthing I've been insecure about for a long time. Would this be the best procedure to consider? I also have teeth crowding and a narrow palate so Wondered if jaw surgery could also be an option.
I had a genioplasty and then a revision a couple of months ago. I wish I had gotten a chin implant, because I feel like they look more contoured and elegant. On top of that I would like a little bit more of projection. Specially from a third quarter view I notice that people with chin augmentation have a really nice balance with the rest of their face that I still lack. I wonder if there is a chin implant small enough to fit in there or if it would be too much? Am I stuck with getting just filler?
