What Is Chin Surgery?
(Genioplasty)
Chin surgery, also known as genioplasty, is an oral and maxillofacial procedure that improves the shape, size, and position of the chin when it is too small, too prominent, or asymmetrical.
Using personalized surgical planning and advanced techniques, Dr. Mauricio Vallejo, an oral and maxillofacial surgeon in Cali, Colombia, precisely repositions the chin bone forward or backward to create a more balanced, natural-looking facial profile tailored to each patient’s needs.
The procedure is performed through small incisions inside the mouth, leaving no visible scars. It is typically an outpatient surgery with a relatively quick recovery, and when the correction is limited to the chin, orthodontic treatment is generally not required.
A well-balanced chin can transform your entire facial profile. Let us help you determine the best treatment for your goals.
