Facial Cosmetic Surgery

Mentoplasty

Mentoplasty is a cosmetic surgery procedure that modifies the shape and volume of the chin to balance the facial profile. It can augment a receding chin with an implant or reduce a prominent chin. At Nobel Clinic Istanbul, this procedure is often combined with rhinoplasty (profiloplasty) for optimal facial harmony.

How the Procedure Is Performed

Two main techniques exist. Chin implant: an incision is made inside the mouth (or under the chin) to place a soft silicone implant onto the chin bone. Genioplasty: an osteotomy is performed to move the chin bone forward, backward, or reduce its size. The procedure lasts 45 minutes to 1 hour 30 minutes, depending on the technique.

Postoperative Follow-up and Recovery

  • Chin swelling for 1 to 2 weeks
  • Soft food if administered intraorally
  • Temporary numbness possible
  • Resumption of activities after 7 to 10 days
  • Visible results within 3 weeks, final results in 2-3 months

Expected Results

Mentoplasty offers a marked improvement in facial harmony and profile balance. The chin is brought into proportion with the nose and forehead. The result is long-lasting with a stable implant or permanent with genioplasty.
