CHIN SURGERY
WHAT IS CHIN SURGERY?
Since the chin is located in the middle part of the face, such as the nose, it is also aesthetically important. While a small chin makes the face appear longer or larger, a large chin, on the contrary, can make other facial features appear short or small.
WHAT ARE THE TECHNIQUES USED IN CHIN SURGERY?
It is an aesthetic intervention applied to people whose chin is in front of the nose when viewed from the profile. It is performed using general anesthesia. The chin tip is filed with the patient in the amount planned before with special medical instruments. The operation applied to patients over 20 years of age takes between 1.5 and 2 hours.
IN WHICH SITUATIONS CAN YOU HAVE CHIN SURGERY?
- Small Chin
- Back or front of the Chin
- Small Chin tip
- Long and pointed Chin
POST-PROCEDURE RECOVERY PROCESS
If the aesthetic intervention is limited to the chin only, the patient is discharged on the same day. Post-operative pain can be relieved with simple painkillers. If it is involved with the nose or face, the patient will need to stay in the hospital. After discharge, the patient should rest for 2 weeks. At the end of this period, patient can return to his/her daily life. Following the advice given by your doctor will shorten the healing process.
IS CHIN SURGERY A PAINFUL PROCEDURE?
General and local anesthesia procedures are applied in chin aesthetic applications. There is no pain or ache during the procedure. The patient can be operated comfortably.
WILL THERE BE ANY SURGICAL SCARS AFTER THE PROCEDURE?
If the surgery is done through the mouth, there is no scar problem.
HOW IS THE OPERATION PLANNED BEFORE CHIN AESTHETICS?
For chin aesthetics, first the patient's expectations are evaluated. Then, the surgery is planned by analyzing the problems for a jaw structure compatible with the facial features.
