Genioplasty is a cosmetic surgery to improve the appearance of the chin area. The procedure aims to correct the shape, size and asymmetry problems of the chin. It is done to balance the facial features, to define the chin area and to have a more attractive appearance. Genioplasty is typically performed using a chin implant or filler injection. A chin implant involves placing an artificial prosthesis designed to fit the person’s facial features and chin area into the chin area. The implant is surgically placed and closed with a few stitches.
On the other hand, chin fillers involve injecting fillers, typically natural substances such as hyaluronic acid, into the chin area to add volume. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia and takes a few minutes. Genioplasty may vary according to the needs and expectations of the person. Before the procedure, the doctor evaluates the facial features of the person and decides which procedure is most suitable for him. Recovery time after the procedure may vary depending on the type of procedure and the health status of the person. Typically, however, normal activities can be resumed a few days after the procedure, and swelling and bruising may occur for a few weeks after the procedure.
Genioplasty is performed through either chin implant or chin augmentation using fillers. Both procedures are performed as follows:
Chin Implant Procedure: Usually performed under local anesthesia. The chin area is cleaned and sterilized beforehand. The implant is designed to fit the facial features and is prepared under sterile conditions. The area where the prosthesis will be placed is opened using surgical incisions. The prosthesis is then placed into the chin bone and positioned appropriately. After the procedure is complete, the incisions are sutured and a sterile bandage is applied. The recovery process can vary depending on the type of procedure and the patient’s health condition.
Chin Filler Procedure: Usually performed under local anesthesia. The filler material is injected into the chin area with a sterilized syringe. The procedure typically takes less than 30 minutes. The filler material adds volume to the chin area, providing fullness. After the procedure is complete, the patient can return to normal activities. The recovery process can vary depending on the type of procedure and the patient’s health condition.
In both types of procedures, the patient’s health condition is evaluated prior to the operation, and the intervention to be made in the chin area is determined according to the patient’s desires. Possible side effects such as swelling, bruising, or pain after the procedure can vary depending on the type of procedure and the patient’s health condition. Additionally, both types of procedures may require the patient to pay attention to their diet, sleep schedule, and activity level for a certain period after surgery.

Jaw contouring surgery, also known as chin reduction surgery, is a surgical procedure performed to reshape the bone structure in the chin area. This procedure can be used to eliminate a protruding or asymmetrical chin. Jaw contouring surgery is a cosmetic procedure and is typically performed on young adults.
The surgery is usually performed under general anesthesia. During the procedure, the surgeon shapes the bone tissue in the chin area using a dental drill or other cutting tools. Only a specific amount of bone tissue is removed during the procedure, so that the chin area has an appropriate shape and size. After the procedure is completed, the surgeon closes the incisions and applies a sterile bandage.
Those who undergo chin reduction surgery may experience side effects such as swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort for a few days after the procedure. During the postoperative period, the individual can continue their normal activities. However, the exact recovery time may vary depending on the type of procedure and the individual’s health status. Additionally, the individual should follow the doctor’s instructions before and after the surgery and pay attention to the recommended diet, sleep schedule, and activity level.
Genioplasty prices vary depending on the size of the problem in the treatment area, the experience of the doctor performing the procedure, and the individual’s needs. Prices can also vary depending on the method used for the genioplasty procedure. For example, a chin implant procedure may be more expensive than a filler injection procedure because it is a longer and more invasive procedure. When calculating the prices for jawline contouring procedures, the factors considered for genioplasty prices are also taken into account. However, prices may be higher as different methods may be used in the procedure.

In genioplasty, the filler method is not permanent, but the results of chin surgery performed by surgery are permanent.
Genioplasty is a safe and straightforward operation that can enhance the appearance of the skin, giving a more youthful and aesthetic look.
Genioplasty is performed through incisions made either inside the mouth or under the chin. If the operation is done through the mouth, there will be no visible scars.
People with a chin that is further behind or has a protruding structure compared to their face can undergo genioplasty. Also, individuals with a chin that is larger than their face can also have chin surgery.
