FAQ

Receding Chin Correction — frequently asked questions

Is a receding chin corrected with an implant or bone surgery?

Both are options. Bone surgery (genioplasty) moves your own chin bone; the right choice depends on your anatomy.

Is a receding chin related to protruding mouth?

Often. Protruding lips frequently appear together with a receding chin, so the two are assessed together.

Is there a visible scar?

Chin surgery is typically performed through an incision inside the mouth.
