Chin Repair

Mentoplasty

The shape, position and structure of your chin has an impact on the look of your entire face. Surgical repair of the chin can be used to help improve the contour and placement of bone structures, balance the tissue and skin around the chin, and help repair damage from injury, disease, aging and congenital defects.

If you are struggling with irregular structures such as a weak or recessed chin, a pronounced shape or size due to large bones, or excess skin and tissue resulting from previous surgical procedures, chin repair may be the answer for you.

Procedures for chin repair include; bringing the position of the chin forward or back by cutting, moving and reinforcing the bone with a titanium plate, adding a synthetic implant to the bone, and surgery for reducing the bone or soft tissue of the chin.

Chin repair is often performed in combination with other surgeries such as nasal refinement, chin lift, and eyebrow lift in order to help give a balanced look to the entire face.

In order to determine which chin repair procedure is right for you a full consultation is needed.
