Chin Augmentation
Chin surgery or mentoplasty is a surgery aimed to correct the shape and size of the chin. It can be performed as a separate procedure or combined with other types of facial rejuvenation, such as facelift and SMAS facelift.



Indications for mentoplasty
- Protruding chin.
- Underdeveloped chin.
- Double chin.
- Drooping cheeks.
- Congenital and acquired chin deformities.
Chin surgery is recommended for patients who have reached the age of 18 years when the facial skeleton is formed.
General contraindications: cancer disease, cardiovascular and acute infectious diseases, arterial hypertension, thyroid disorders, diabetes mellitus, blood-clotting disorder, obesity.
Types of mentoplasty
- Reduction mentoplasty. When a patient has a large chin, a surgeon incises or removes the bone, then shifts the lower jaw fragment back and fixes it in the desired position.
- Augmentation mentoplasty. In case of the small or underdeveloped chin, an implant is placed under the patient’s periosteal coverage or the lower part of the jaw is pulled forward and then fixed.
- Non-surgical mentoplasty. This is a procedure aimed at a slight change of the chin shape and size without the surgery, using subcutaneous injections of hyaluronic acid fillers or the patient’s own fat (chin lipofilling).
