What is Chin Surgery?

Chin Surgery, also known as mentoplasty, is defined as a surgical process that helps in reshaping the chin either by reduction surgery on the bone or by enhancement with an implant. During the surgery, jawbone is moved forward to improve proportions of the face. Alternatively, patients can opt for the silicone implants for giving more projection to it. Being considered as a non-complicated procedure, patients experience visible differences after the surgery.

Chin surgeries are suitable for those candidates who think their chin is not symmetrical with rest of the facial features. Moreover, those people can also consider the surgery whose chin is out of proportion due to accident, age-related bone loss or birth defect. It is important to remember that the main aim of the surgery is to give it more projection and better shape.
