Osseous Genioplasty

Chin enhancement procedures, such as chin augmentation, implants, and contouring, can improve facial balance and boost self-confidence. These cosmetic treatments sculpt a more defined, natural-looking chin and enhance your overall profile. Performed by skilled specialists, chin surgery offers long-lasting results tailored to your facial structure. Whether you want to correct a recessed chin or improve facial harmony, a personalized consultation can help you explore the best chin enhancement options.

Introduction

Does your chin appear too small, recessed, or asymmetrical compared to the rest of your face? Is your jawline lacking definition?

A well-defined chin plays a critical role in balancing facial aesthetics. While fillers or implants can offer temporary correction, osseous genioplasty is a permanent surgical procedure that reshapes and repositions your natural chin bone for long-lasting harmony. At Asteria Aesthetics Bhopal, Dr. Apoorv Loya performs osseous genioplasty with surgical precision and artistic judgment to enhance your profile and redefine confidence.

Common Causes

Chin irregularities are often inherited or develop over time due to growth patterns, trauma, or previous surgeries. A weak chin can throw off facial proportions, affecting not just aesthetics but also self-esteem.

Common reasons for osseous genioplasty include:

  • Receding or under-projected chin (retrogene)

  • Facial imbalance due to a short lower third

  • Asymmetry in chin height or width

  • Jawline definition concerns despite weight control

  • Congenital deformities or trauma-related misalignment

  • Dissatisfaction with previous chin augmentation (implant/filler)

Treatment Process

Osseous genioplasty involves cutting and repositioning the patient’s own chin bone (mandibular symphysis), allowing for permanent correction without the use of implants.

Step 1: Facial Assessment & Planning

Description: Dr. Apoorv Loya evaluates your profile, bite alignment, chin structure, and soft tissue support. 3D imaging or X-rays may be used for planning.

Result: A surgical blueprint is prepared, specifying how much advancement, setback, or rotation is needed.

Best For: Patients seeking long-term skeletal correction rather than temporary enhancement.

Step 2: Chin Osteotomy Procedure

Description: Under general anesthesia, a small incision is made inside the mouth. The chin bone is carefully cut, repositioned as needed, and fixed in place using titanium plates and screws.

Result: A naturally enhanced chin that improves facial symmetry and jawline definition.

Best For: Weak chins, recessed jawlines, and profile correction.

Step 3: Healing & Recovery

Description: Post-surgery, swelling and numbness may occur for a few days. Most patients resume non-strenuous work in 7–10 days. The bone fully heals in 6–8 weeks.

Result: Visible improvement in chin projection, definition, and facial balance.

Best For: Individuals committed to surgical correction with long-term goals.

Before And After Your Osseous Genioplasty at Asteria Aesthetics

Before Your Treatment

Patients commonly present with a recessed chin, disproportionate lower face, or dissatisfaction with filler-based results. A full facial assessment helps determine whether osseous genioplasty or a simpler augmentation is more suitable.

During Your Treatment

Performed under general anesthesia in a sterile OT, the procedure lasts 1.5 to 2 hours. As it is intraoral, there are no external scars. Titanium plates are used for bone fixation and are biocompatible.

After Your Treatment

Swelling, bruising, and mild soreness are common but subside within 7–10 days. Final bone integration and healing occur over 6–8 weeks. Results become clearly visible by the third week and continue refining over the months.

Benefits Of Osseous Genioplasty

Osseous genioplasty provides structural enhancement by reshaping the actual bone, resulting in long-term harmony between facial features.

Key benefits include:

  • Permanent correction of chin recession or protrusion

  • Improved facial proportions and jawline contour

  • Enhanced profile without synthetic implants

  • No external scarring (intraoral approach)

  • Boost in self-image, especially in profile photographs

Lifestyle Tips After Genioplasty

Optimal healing requires supportive care and healthy lifestyle choices. Here’s how to ensure a smooth recovery:

  • Stick to a soft-food diet for 7–10 days

  • Use prescribed antiseptic mouthwash to prevent infection

  • Sleep with your head elevated to reduce swelling

  • Avoid strenuous activity for 2–3 weeks

  • Refrain from smoking—it delays bone healing

  • Attend follow-ups as scheduled for X-ray and recovery assessment
