Correcting a Recessed Chin: Sliding Genioplasty vs Chin Implant

A recessed chin (also called microgenia) can significantly impact facial balance, jawline definition, and side-profile appearance. Many patients considering chin surgery ask whether a chin implant or sliding genioplasty is the better option. In this video, I explain the key differences between chin implants vs sliding genioplasty, including how each procedure is performed, ideal candidates, expected results, recovery timelines, and long-term stability. I also discuss how chin position relates to overall facial structure and when bone movement may be preferred over an implant.
