Harmonize Your Chin
Facial harmony depends on the balance between key features like the nose, lips, cheekbones, chin, and jawline. The chin plays an important role in shaping the facial profile and should be proportionate with the nose and neck. A chin that is too small or recessed can make the lower face appear weak, contribute to a convex profile, and accelerate visible signs of aging like sagging around the neck and corners of the mouth. On the other hand, a chin that is overly prominent may give the impression of a longer, less balanced face.
Mentoplasty, or chin surgery, is a procedure designed to improve balance in the lower third of the face by reshaping and repositioning the chin. This may involve increasing or reducing projection and correcting asymmetry for a more refined, harmonious look.
Achieving balance between the chin, lips, and nose is one of the key components of an attractive facial profile.
One of the most common methods for chin enhancement is the placement of an implant made from biocompatible materials like silicone, titanium, or PEEK, a high-performance polyetheretherketone resin. Silicone implants are typically standard-sized and long-lasting. Titanium and PEEK implants, on the other hand, are fully customized using advanced 3D imaging technology to match the patient's facial structure precisely, and are known for their durability and natural-looking results.
Chin implants are a popular, reliable solution for enhancing projection and definition.

Another advanced option for both chin augmentation and reduction is ultrasonic sliding genioplasty. This technique uses the patient’s own bone, repositioned through a carefully planned surgical approach. An intraoral ultrasonic cut is made in the jawbone —below the roots of the teeth and dental nerve— to allow the chin to be moved forward or backward. It is then secured in its new position using titanium fixation materials. This method allows for a scar-free result and can achieve incredibly personalized, natural enhancements.

Whether using an implant or sliding genioplasty, chin surgery is typically a short, outpatient procedure. It can be performed under general or local anesthesia with sedation. Sliding genioplasty leaves no external scarring. Implant placement may leave a small, discreet scar under the chin, though in many cases the incision can be made inside the mouth. After surgery, patients wear a small splint for a few days to help protect the area and support healing. A short course of antibiotics and pain relief is usually prescribed, and most patients can return to work within a week.
