Gonion (tip of the chin) may be smaller or larger than normal. Both cases cause significant aesthetic problems. Genioplasty operations are operations to change the look of Gonion. With these operations, the size and length of Gonion can be increased or reduced. In other words, the gonion may be reshaped according to aesthetic norms.

Gonion being larger than normal affects the facial harmony of the person negatively and causes a rough appearance. With the operation, the gonion can be reduced in accordance with aesthetic norms. As a result, a more natural and beautiful facial structure emerges.

Genioplasty operations are carried out under general anesthesia. The duration of the operation is about 45 min-1 hours on average. The operation is performed completely through the inside of the mouth and does not create any scars on the face. The patient is discharged on the same day or the day after.
