Pre Operative Question Answer

What is the difference between a chin implant and genioplasty?

A chin implant is a surgical procedure where a silicone or synthetic implant is placed to enhance the size and shape of the chin. Genioplasty, on the other hand, is a surgical procedure that involves reshaping the patient’s existing chin bone to achieve the desired aesthetic outcome. The choice between a chin implant and genioplasty depends on factors such as the patient’s specific anatomy, goals, and the surgeon’s recommendation based on their expertise and assessment of the patient’s needs.
