Quick Recovery After Short Chin and Receding Chin Surgery, When You Want Improvement

If you are bothered by having a shorter chin than other people

If your lower jaw lacks volume and your mouth appears protruded

If you want to improve the chin line without shaving bone

If any of the above applies to you, short chin surgery or receding chin surgery may be recommended.

Many people consider receding chin surgery to improve a short chin or receding chin.

When people hear “receding chin surgery,” they often think of bone surgery such as chin advancement or osteotomy,

which can raise concerns about recovery and make the decision feel more burdensome.

However, our clinic’s short chin and receding chin surgery uses an implant,

allowing for quick recovery while naturally adding volume and length to the chin tip,

with a variety of expected effects.

People who are concerned about a short chin also consider receding chin surgery.

Short chin and receding chin surgery is performed with custom implant design based on the medical team’s aesthetic sense and expertise,

designing the overall proportions so they can look harmonious.

In cases where a protruding mouth is a concern, simple orthodontic treatment is often thought of as the only option,

but since the lower jaw may have little volume regardless of the teeth, the upper jaw can appear relatively protruded.

Therefore, with receding chin surgery using a custom implant,

natural volume and length can be added, and improvement in the protruding mouth can be expected.

When performing implant surgery for a receding chin to improve a short chin or receding chin,

two major types of implants are commonly used.

These are silicone implants and Gore-Tex implants. Each type has different characteristics,

and the advantages and disadvantages may also differ.

At our clinic, we may prefer receding chin surgery using Gore-Tex.

In the case of silicone implants, the material cost is relatively low and the shape is already completed,

which has the advantage of shortening the procedure time, but it must be fixed with screws, etc.,

to prevent movement.

On the other hand, Gore-Tex implants, while more expensive in material cost, can be custom-made 1:1 for each patient,

meeting the patient’s needs, and these custom implants have less movement or shifting.

The shape of the chin tip varies from person to person. Therefore,

the implant for short chin surgery should also be a custom implant that is most suitable for each individual,

so that a more natural result can be expected.

To help prevent various side effects and improve patient satisfaction,

even if the material cost is higher, using a Gore-Tex implant allows for 1:1 custom implant creation,

which places it in the most appropriate position and helps increase satisfaction with the results of short chin surgery.
