Short chin refers to the case in which the lower portion of a face appears to be absent because the lower jaw bone is situated too far back or the tip of the chin is too small.
In this case, the boundary between the neck and face becomes undefined and thereby giving relative protrusion of the mouth.
Small or short chin can be corrected by different surgical methods: chin implant, fat graft and bone advancement.
 |
When the case is not severe, the size of a chin can be enlarged with inserting an implant (gore-tex or silicone) at the tip of a chin or with fat graft on a chin.
But, for a severe case of short chin, bone advancement is recommended. Chin bone advancement (genioplasty) consists of cutting the chin bone horizontally and moving the lower portion of the cutted bone forward and fix the upper and lower parts with pins.
The accurate methods of surgery will be determined depending on one's conditions.
