Chin Surgery

Overview

Chin surgery (genioplasty) advances, reduces or reshapes the chin — by bone surgery or an implant — to balance the profile.

Methods & types

• Sliding genioplasty (bone repositioning)
• Chin implant
• Reduction for a long/prominent chin

Who it’s for

• Recessed or overly long/short chin
• Weak profile balance
• Often combined with V-line or jaw work

Recovery

• Swelling for 2–3 weeks
• Soft diet early on
• Settled result over months

Approximate cost

USD 3,000–6,000

Ranges are rough estimates and vary widely by clinic, technique and individual case. Always confirm the exact price at consultation.

Considerations

• Bone vs. implant suits different cases
• Coordinate with overall jaw/profile plan
