Chin correction

Surgical procedure to augment, or reduce the protusion of the chin, to obtain a more harmonious profile of the face.

The excessively prominent bone or bone-muscle is eliminated by making an incision on the bottom part of the gum, inside the mouth and removing the extra surface of the bone.

When chin is not very pronounced an implant is inserted, chosen on the basis of the facial features and degree of the defect of the patient.

It is a surgical procedure reversible: if for any reasons the patient changes its mind the implant can be removed.

This procedure can be performed under local anesthesia with one overnight in hospital.
