CHIN SURGERY

Chin surgery involves the correction of chin deformities through the introduction of a small prosthesis or infiltrating fat from your own body (lipofilling).

Often, a prominent nose is accompanied by a small and retracted chin. That is why in many cases, to ensure the greater harmony of the face, the  rhinoplasty is performed at the same time with  the chin surgery.

This joint procedure is called profileplasty and is performed with local anaesthesia and sedation. It is of a great importance to young people because, in addition to the aesthetic improvement, it gives them great self-confidence.
