Chin Aesthetics (Mentoplasty)

Mentoplasty, also known as chin surgery, is a cosmetic surgical procedure that involves reshaping the chin. It can be done to enlarge or reduce the size of the chin, adjust its position, or correct any asymmetry. The procedure is usually done under general anesthesia and involves making an incision through the mouth or under the chin. Depending on the desired outcome, the surgeon may place an implant or remove and reshape the bone. After surgery, patients can expect some swelling and discomfort, which can be treated with pain medications and ice packs. Overall, mentoplasty can improve facial balance and enhance one's facial features, leading to increased self-confidence and improved quality of life.
