Chin

Facial Plastic Surgery

Maxillofacial Surgeons nickname the angle formed by the chin and cheekbones as the “triangle of beauty”. If the chin does not have an adequate size and profile, the face does not look symmetrical or harmonic.

Surgeries can be performed for augmenting, reducing and contouring the chin.

Hence, in most cases we recommend a sliding genioplasty that allows the chin to be augmented or reduced by performing osteotomies in the bone itself, without the need to use prosthetic materials or other materials.

Surgeries can be performed for augmenting, reducing and contouring the chin.

Dr. Manel Coll performs this technique using a harmonic scalpel, much more precise and safer than conventional methods.

All incisions are made inside the mouth so the patient does not have any visible scars.

This procedure should be performed with local anaesthesia and sedation or with general anaesthesia, depending on the technique employed.

We must not forget that it is a surgical procedure.

For optimal results and in order to avoid unnecessary complications, you should always consult with a Maxillofacial Surgery Specialist.

In relevant cases, the patient can benefit from a custom chin prosthesis.
We use 3D technology to manufacture prosthetic materials and the most biocompatible materials on the market (peek, titanium …)
