Facial contouring

Genioplasty (advancement, lengthening, reduction)

MOOi's genioplasty can advance, set back, lengthen or shorten the chin; for a wide chin a 'ㅅ'-shaped osteotomy removes a central segment so the chin narrows on frontal view. About 90 minutes under general anaesthesia.

Who it suits

  • A short, receding or overly long chin
  • A wide chin on frontal view

Technique highlights

  • A 'ㅅ'-shaped cut narrows the front of the chin
  • Can be combined with fat grafting, filler or botulinum toxin where suitable

Surgical steps

  • Design to chin shape and facial proportion
  • Osteotomise and reposition the chin bone
  • Fix the bone and verify the facial midline

Recovery & aftercare

  • One follow-up and one suture-removal visit
  • Daily life after roughly one week

Risks & things to consider

  • Results depend on individual anatomy and after-care.
  • Every operation carries risks and possible complications; consult a specialist first.
  • Surgery time and recovery figures come from MOOi's official pages and may change after the doctor's assessment.
