Chin reduction surgery, also known as mentoplasty, is a plastic surgery procedure that reduces or alters the overall size and shape of the chin. The goal of this procedure is often to achieve a smaller or slimmer chin.
It is sometimes performed alongside a jawline reduction or cheek augmentation to help patients achieve their ideal facial contour. Generally, patients who opt for a chin reduction are trying to improve their chin structure that they were born with.
A chin reduction surgery should always be tailored to suit a patient’s unique needs and facial structure. For patients whose chin protrudes or has a particularly sharp contour, bone shaving may be used.
