SLIDING CHIN SURGERY (GENIOPLASTY)
 
WHAT IS SLIDING CHIN/ GENIOPLASTY
 
Sometimes we are not born with facial features that are in perfect balance with one another. In many cases, the solution is to perform sliding chin surgery, bringing the facial features into harmony.
 
A sliding chin surgery (genioplasty) designed to correct a retrusive or misaligned chin and achieve a more aesthetically pleasing facial appearance. In this surgery, a surgeon uses a saw to cut the chin bone away from the rest of the jaw and move it to correct a chin deficiency. 
 
 
 
 
BENEFITS
 
  • Treating a retrusive chin (caused by a lower jaw that doesn’t project much from the face);
  • Providing a more vibrant and attractive distinctive look, since it will add harmony and better proportion to your face's structural appearance;
  • Performed through an intra-oral incision, so there will be no scars visible on the outside.

Candidates seek to improve their chin profile in relation to their other facial features. If a weak chin creates a poorly defined chin-neck profile or if the weak chin is out of proportion with other facial features, such as the nose, you may be a candidate for sliding chin surgery.
 
Frequently asked questions (FAQ) about Sliding chin surgery:
 
 Q: What happens with the stitches in my mouth?
A: They dissolve on their own in 5–7 weeks. They don’t have to be removed. If they would still be in your mouth after 7 weeks, you can easily remove them just by pulling on them, as they will immediately break due to the fact they will be mostly dissolved already.
 
 Q: Can a chin implant, slilding chin or jawline surgery be performed when I have dental implants in that region?
A: Yes of course. Dental implants normally have a maximum length of 14mm. Natural teeth are longer. That’s why dental implants never create problems during a chin augmentation or jaw recontouring.

CONSULTATION
  • Discuss with your surgeon what your hope to achieve, what may or may not be possible given your existing face anatomy, type and skin elasticity. A good relationship and direct coordination with your jaw surgeon and your orthodontist is important because, along with a schedule for your surgery, the two would finally manage the fit of your teeth together;
  • Working with Morpheus and VECTRA XT 3D imaging system to visualize what the potential outcome of your surgery will be. Your face will be photographed from different angles. These photos help with planning the surgery, assessing its immediate and long-term effects,
  • Comprehensive discussion regarding risks and complications,
  • Previous medical history, underlying medical conditions, a complete list of all medications you are taking, birth control, allergies etc. will also be recorded.
 
PREPARE FOR YOUR SURGERY
  • Strictly NO food and drink including water for 6-8 hours before surgery. Having food or drink in your system could cause complications from the anesthesia,
  • Stop smoking before your procedure for a few weeks to avoid nicotine-related risks,
  • Do not take medications that could increase bleeding, such as non-steroidal anti-inflammatories and aspirin. Avoid supplements that have similar effects, like vitamin E and fish oil,
  • You must be cleared for surgery by appropriate pre-surgery screening (blood test, EKG, X-ray, ultrasound etc.) in accordance with your surgeon's instructions and our Patient Safety requirements,
  • Choose clothes that will be comfortable (loose-fitting clothes and slip-on shoes). You shouldn't wear contact lenses, accessories like jewelry, watches, wigs or hairpins. Do not apply any products to your skin or hair the morning of surgery.
 
PROCESS
 
After performing general anesthesia, the chin is cut from back to front on both sides with a micro-saw, separating a horseshoe-shape of bone. A second cut can be made parallel to and a few millimeters from the first one, and a slice of bone can be removed. The middle part of the horseshoe-shaped bone can be removed to make the chin more pointed. At this point, the chin can be moved forward or backward. The whole procedure is carried out in about 60 to 90 minutes.
 
ADVICES AFTER SLIDING CHIN SURGERY AT EMCAS:
 
 To help reduce the initial swelling, you'll have a chin strapping (tape) over the chin. This can be removed after a couple of days or left before the first post-operative appointment of the following week.

 For the first two days, any bleeding and swelling will occur and recovery to normal activity takes 7-14 days. For several months (often 9-12 months) after surgery, when all the swelling has settled, the final defined form of the new chin will not be fully appreciated.

 In order to allow the wound to heal, a soft diet is usually recommended for the first few days. Usually, antibiotics and mouthwash will be provided and during this period, good oral hygiene is very important.
